Type 1 case hardware sizes and quantity and torque values?

[lakeracer69]

I've looked around and haven't found a good resource for these. Maybe my Google Fu is weak.

Can anyone help me out. I don't want to buy a crappy hardware kit with a lot of stuff I don't need. I have a great fastener source nearby.

Thanks

I think the torque and thread sizes are in the manual, but you will have to count to get the quantity.

instead of the ancient 8mm nut and washers, I like to use JIS flanged nuts, no washers needed. Also does not "fall" into the socket. Or maybe should say works with all sockets...for those of you out there with five different kinds of sockets.

But if it is an OLD case where the washers have sunk into the metal, maybe it is better if you just get the same size washers that it had before, and stick them right back where they were.

Buy a length of 8.8 threaded bar. M8x1.25 and suitable nuts (flanged/12 point, hex whatever you fancy)
Probably less than 10$

Use M6 bolts from the inside to fasten your sump plate too. Take the strain off the mag threads.
