Hi V-8ers, I have my Radiator,Radiator Grille and Water Pumps all out. It's a 36 car with a 37 engine. I think that they should go back in the following order: 1. Water pumps 2. Radiator 3. Lower Hoses while the Radiator is still loose 4. Radiator Grille I'm open to corrections. Thanks, Bruce/CT VINOKURS@AOL.COM

That's the procedure I'd follow. Use stainless steel bolts on the internal pump mounts to make it easier if you ever have to remove them. Bill Don't Believe Everything You Think! Bill Wright

I got them from the local fastener specialist here in Calfabulous. If you take the old bolt with you to someplace that sells stainless fasteners,it's an easy match. Don't Believe Everything You Think! Bill Wright

Ace Hardware has a terrific selection of stainless bolts where I live. Richard

Stainless bolt inside the water pump is a good idea, but always use anti-sieze compound on any stainless steel bolt. I learned the hard way with a stainless fine threaded bolt for my bumper brackets. Totally destroyed the nut and bolt when I took it apart without anti-sieze compound.
