Head bolts - thread size

Post by livewire »

Sorry i have looked through the site and i know it's on here somewhere but i can't find it.

What size and thread type do i require to recover a block?

I have just bought two blocks, one is great and the other had 4 sheared head bolts left in it. I have drilled them and need to run a tap through them.

Thanks,

Andy
