Question Water Pump?

Say just getting ready to remove old water pump from my 302. But i was told i might have problems with the bolts holding it in place. And will need to get a new set. Anyone have any idea where i can get a set. So when i start this project i don't have to stop half way into it. and go looking for bolts. Any help would be great thanks.

I usualy pick up extra bolts I need from Tractor supply company. They have all types and sizes. I'm not sure what size it takes for a 302, but I'm sure someone will be along that has one and knows. After you get the sizes, you can pick them up and have them ready.

In the past I have always reused the bolts that I removed I always cleaned
them real good and painted the heads real good, make sure that you use a
sealer (RTV) on the bolts that pass though the water jacket.



P.S in the past I always sat down and took the time to run a nut up the
threads to clean them good, it makes the install go real smooth!
