Does anyone know the bolt size for the EGR to intake as well as the thermostat housing to engine block? Tried sleuthing online and was led astray to get M6 bolts.
For the EGR, M6 is too small. M8x1x25 or so??
For the thermostat housing, M6x1x45 was both too small and too short. Looking more like M8-60? To be clear, I don't need the bolts that join the two pieces of thermostat housing together.

Also, for the manifold line coming off of the intake to the switchover valve, does anyone foresee an issue using windshield washer fluid hose? Trying to do things the "easy" way while I determine the viability of the engine.

Also, does anyone have a picture/description of how the "EGR Exhaust Heat Shield" plate attaches to the engine? Triangular piece of metal with two bolt holes. I don't see how it would bolt to the EGR... Does it attach to the air cleaner assembly bottom?

I'm sure I'll have more questions after these...

Thanks
