[Mgs] Mounting bolt for s.u. fuel pump

[James Schulte]

Folks,
My apologizes to Barney Gaylord. He said 1/4 BSF 26 x 5/8 . I misinterpreted
it and only saw the 5/8 which is the length of the bolt. Even at 61 I have not
learned to slow down and read everything. I can't believe in all the bolts I
have taken off the parts cars I've stripped that I don't have these bolts. Oh
well. I guess I will order 2 in my next order.

So is it 5/8 or 5/16 26 BSF thread?  Barney says 5/8 and Steve says 5/16.
Would a hardware store carry this or do I have to order this special from an
MG supply dealer?
Thanks for the info!!
Jim

Folks,
I am having trouble finding a bolt that will attach to the s.u. fuel pump
which in turn will attach to a bracket on the MG. I have tried fine thread and
course thread and none seem to go further then 1 full turn. It looks like fine
to me but is it tapered?
