NO FEAR, THE OLD BOLT WORKED FINE.  90LBS AND HOLDING   THANKS

90lbs no Problem.. Try doing up an early Ford rear axle nut [they're not big].. Over 200 lbs that'll make you pucker!



"Came too close to dying to stop living now!"

I've used the stock bolt over again in a couple of engines with no problems.

When I did my blower setup I needed a longer bolt and got it from http://www.kljack.com/ We have a store locally so I just took the stock one over and they actually had the bolt I needed in stock. They can also order. I also buy stainless steel bolts from them and they are generally cheaper.

Y's guys rule!
Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.

they will stand 90 and more.reuse.

AM GETTING READY TO INSTALL THE BALANCER.  ANY SUGGESTIONS ON "SHOULD I USE THE EXISTING CRANKSHAFT BOLT OR SHOULD I GET A NEW ONE"?   MY CONCERN IS "CAN THE OLD BOLT TAKE THE 90 LB. TORQUE.?  MY EXPERIENCE WITH MERCEDES BOLTS IS THAT THEY DON'T  RECOMMEND REUSING OLD BOLTS BECAUSE THEY ARE STRESSED AND STRETCHED  AND MAY GIVE WAY.  THANKS
