Where to find those water pump bolts

[rommaster2]

Ok i was wondering where can i find ones those little bolts that have 1 for your water pump and another for the engine block. They hold hoses, but i cant find any of them that will fit in my 65 200. Kragen only has ones that are too big, and nappa only has stupid ones with threads on both ends. I need the one with one end threaded, and the other made for the heater hose to go on. So yeah i need two for my engine, cause i'm pretty sure it was still on its original water cooling, everything was rusted out.

bolts? sounds like youre talking about fittings. youre looking for em with pipe thread one one end and a hose fitting on the other, right? check your hardware store. or if all else fails, buy one thats threaded on both ends and cut off the one end. good to go

It's a hose nipple with male NPT thread on the other end. You can get fancy anodised ones from brands like Russell, Aeroquip and Earl's, plated steel, or plain brass ones. Hydraulic places usually sell the brass ones (preferable, as they'll never rust and fuse with the block).

Take a picture of the holes they're supposed to go in, and we'll tell you where to get'em.
