Intake Manifold bolts
Trying if figure out where specific intake manifold bolts go on my 68 GTO with AC.
I've got an OEM set with all standard bolts ... not sure exactly the application. And I've got a set I took off a donor 68 Lemans, V8, with AC ... the bolts I removed and bagged from the Lemans has three intake bolts with studs. I assume for various accessory mounts. I think two go on the passenger side front for the funky AC mounting bracket. Anyone know where the other goes? Did the thermostat housing have a bolt with a stud? Seems like I remember that ... like an alternator bracket or something hooked up to it. Would the 69 assembly manual be fairly accurate for this kind of thing? |

69 assembly manual appears to show a stud in the forward position of the thermostat housing that connects to one side of the "double" upper Alternator mount. (car with PS )
This is the same I remember it for my 68. Am I correct? |

That forward thermostat housing bolt/stud combo is + - 1 3/4 OAL . Believe intake combo bolt would be longer.

The set of bolts I have, appears to be all three bolt/stud combos are the same length. I'll measure them tomorrow.
