Unknown part and usage...

[Daniel E.]

All,

Found these items (see picture) in a collection of hardware that came out of a corvette shop of 40+ years. I don't know what they are used for or if they are even for a corvette.

Any help in identifying them is appreciated


Thanks
Daniel

Looking at the picture one stud is upside down, different thread on each side. Could be intake bolts to mount the thermostat housing. They look too big to be intake manifold to carburetor studs.

BB power steering upper bracket stud that's in the head? Chevelle BB used the same one

Al,

I guess the picture is misleading.... the threads are normal 1/4-20 on both ends and the hex is 7/16. The parts are quite small

Thanks
Daniel

Daniel, those look like oil pan stud bolts for small blocks in the mid-seventies. The stud and would get a j clip on it.

Thanks Rich,

That seems possible because of their size. I will take a look in that direction
