main bolts question

i just got my arp main bolts after over a month. anyway i opened them up and saw that all the bolts are identical, isnt there supposed to be one with a stud on the top of it? for the oil pickup? if not, when i put the oil pump back in, how do i attach the oil pickup?

The bolt with the stud was only used with rear sump oil pans found on 4x4's. Other motors have front sump oil pans, and do not have this stud. When I installed my rear sump oil pan, I got that special bolt from a local Ford Dealer.

ARP will sell you one, It'll be one from a BBC. It looks close to running out of threads but it works with the thick washer.

the arp part numbers are RWS-1B for the bolt, and WTN-1 for the nut, and washer, I just had this same problem, and had to ask arp that was the numbers they sent me in an email respose
