all, looking for one more crankcase halves perimeter "screw" as i continue overhaul of my a65-8f.

it's part number 24252 on page 39 of the overhaul manual, figure 30-crankcase

the bolt i removed was just a 1/4-28 and was slopping around in the 5/16ths hole.

i can make one on a lathe and cut my own threads or buy it from spruce for $62, but if someone has one in their junk drawer and can spare one, that'd be nice and i can float you some $$$ or trade perhaps a part you need or remember you as helping me out for a future payback.

anyways, here's the specs: i call it a hex head shoulder bolt. shoulder that is in the hole is smooth grip 5/16ths diameter by 1.75" long. then the milled down and threaded end is 1/4-28 with at least a 1/2" of threads. total bolt length is 2 and 5/8ths.

or if someone knows where i can buy one for substantially less than $62 i'm all ears.

thanks, tom
