These are the bolts that I have to install the 7 piece style factory A/C brackets to the cast iron stock exaust manifolds on a small block. Do I have the correct bolts/studs for this application? I can measure and give exact dimensions if needed.

Is truck a 4x4? The stud on far right resembles the stud used to hold 4x4 dipstick in place. If not 4x4, the stud is the one located in the water pump for the frant most bracket. The correct studs are the hard pieces to get, the rest is available in the aftermarket. But to answer your question, yes it looks like you have what you need. Harold

Thanks Harold! These are all exaust manifold bolts, including the right one, and that SHOULD be for a dipstick retainer. The truck these came from is a 2WD but the previous owner installed drivetrain and several options like factory AC from another truck...POSSIBLY a 4x4? The truck was just missing some important AC brackets and we got that squared away with the help of another post. I just couldn't get info on proper bolts and I didn't want to trust the previous owners building skills! Thanks for the info!!!!
