resource for misc nuts and bolts?

I'm slowly getting all of the pieces together so I can swap in a 350/th350 for my V6. Is there any online resource that lists the sizes and types of bolts that are used? For example the bolts sizes for the water pump, fan or starter...

thanks.

I bought a complete S/S bolt set for my newly rebuilt 350 SBC from EBay. I think the guy is a disabled vet and the quality is 2nd to none. His EBay ID is: "pva-boltkits". The bolts were wrapped up in little zip-lock baggies and labeled as to what went where, etc..

You might wanna give him a try

Check with some of the vendors on the board. They sell or can get stainless steel nuts and bolts. I think they come from some company named "Totally Stainless"? Bought some for my truck. Makes things a lot easier.

There are several stores in my area with "Fasteners" in their name (ie: Southern Fasteners") that can supply any kind of stainless bolts/nuts you need at very good prices --don't pay inflated magazine vendor prices. I don't exactly live in a metropolitan area so you should be able to find a store in the yellow pages for your area. Just take a sample of what you need to the store. Also check yellow pages on line>

You can get complete sets from Totally Stainless, ARP and other suppliers. Several of the vendors on this board sell Totally Stainless and you can get ARP from Jegs or Summit Racing.
