Repros have an A with 3 slash grade 5 designation. As I dig thru my mopar bolt collection I'm finding E, S, etc. Anyone out there with an untouched 68 hemi car and know which is right? many thanks

I am guessing they are the same for 68? I had a 68 440 and the Water pump housing bolts were H's. It would be the same on a Hemi. The short alternator bracket bolt on the top of the water pump is a slotted head Marsden bolt. Do you have power steering? What bolt markings do you have on your timing cover bolts?

M bolts with three lines are also OK for the water pump to housing. Doesn't the pulley hide the water pump bolts on a 68 Hemi?
