Acorn Cap nut

Post by qside » Fri Dec 28, 2012 6:58 pm

Hey does anyone have a couple cylinder block cap nuts they want to sell. I am rebuilding a 305 and it only had 6 of the 8 sealing acorn nuts.
Thanks...

You can use the typical nut at the 4 posta in the middle.
HONDA did in 1967. ......lm

If it's aesthetic value that concerns you, most yacht chandlers should have M8 acorn nuts. I can put some in the post to you if you're not near a chandlery that stocks metric fasteners.
