TH350 Torq converter bolts

[squaredeal91]

Can't find the torque converter bolts for my th350 trans. Is it 3/8 or 7/16 or metric? And what grade is it? I'm going to the hardware store to see what I get based off what size sample bolts I can find however I'm sure some of you will know right off.

3/8-24 is what my 76 and 79 use. Maybe 5/8” long? Or 1/2” long?

An autoparts store should have some, be it Dorman or Mr. Gasket, ARP even Summit and Jegs. (Use grade 8 otherwise)

Amazon might be the best bet if your not in any rush. They offer next day delivery on a lot of items. I bought a drive belt that was $8 on Amazon with free delivery by 11 AM tomorrow. The same belt from the store would have been $120.

Ha! Sweet ride. I would bolt that hood down right where its at, put some bull horns where the front bumper would be, and rock it like that on the road. Maybe get a personalized plate that says "MadMax".

I was actually seriously gonna mount it to my roof like a visor lol. I'll trade it out with a worse one. I think it looks cool for a tuff truck.
