    Hey all,
    Does anyone know the exact sizes of all the bolts on a flathead 6 & flathead 8 hudson engine? I would like to know most importantly the size of the bolts holding the head to block and the bolt holding on the wheels on front including the bolt holding the cam shaft. Also any other bolts that are larger than 1" .
    Thanks,
    Chris

    If you have the parts book a lot of the bolt sizes are given with the part number,

    I checked some of the manuals that Alex posted and only found the part number. The bolt holding the camshaft on is H10-12 in the 48-54 master parts catalog.
