Re: Complicated volvo 3.0l starter query

Does anyone know the thread sizes of starter mounting bolts and the smaller tapped out holes on the block for the rear starter bracket....everything here is metric!

Ayuh,... Here, they're 3/8"-16... or the metric equivalent...

Agree with Bill.... 3/8" NC!
Also.... the bolts are specific to the starter motor in-that they;
*serve as alignment dowel (note the dowel type shank area)......
*the length is specific for the starter motor housing (i.e., tightens fully prior to threads bottoming out)......
