What Size Bolts

[Wild west Drifter]

Simple tech question - Does anyone know what size- Dia,Pitch and length the bolts are.

I am going to need some new longer ones when I fit my new exhaust system.

Until the new bits arrive I won't know how much longer they need to be.

Obviously I can't just take one of the existing ones to try and get a longer match because the car is also my daily driver.

I believe its an M8 bolt 75mm long with 23mm of thread. If your unsure of the length you will need I suggest buying a M8 threaded rod from a hardware store (like B&Q) and corresponding washers and nuts. Then you can cut it to size as the new exhaust is fitted.

Good luck!
