Lost Engine Nameplate Screws...

[GrandmasterK]

I lost the 4 screws that hold on the nameplate to the intake manifold on my 89 GT... I don't know what size they were either. Anyone have a link to where i could order replacements or specs so i could go looking myself?

I actually have the upper intake off a Ford Explorer on there now, but it appears to use the same size nameplate as stock.

Excellent, thanks! $9 is a lot for four screws but I guess next time I need to take better care where I leave these

I cheated - drilled & tapped them to 10-32 and used some screws that I had on hand...

You can also probably get them at a True Value if you have one of those stores. They have the specialty type screws you need

Did you check the tech forums, there is a thread in there on bolt sizes, if it's not there when you get them we can add it.

If you have some local junkyards handy, an '86-'88 V8 Cougar or Thunderbird, '86-'91 Crown Vic or Grand Marquis, '86-'90 Town car, or '86-92 Mark VII will have a similar upper intake with the same four screws.

I didn't see it, but I didn't know what to call these either.

We do have True Value stores around here, but I already submitted the order and don't feel like dealing with returns.

True that. Pretty much and fi 5.0. Should be easy to find an intake with em.

$9 is ing highway robbery for four 2 cent screws. I’d put some pan heads in from the hardware store in before paying that much lol.
