Replace main cap bolts MerCruiser 3.0

[Chucky5150]

Hey guys .I need to replace my main cap bolts. I been able to find a million main bolts online, just not sure there right ones. I even came across a diagram of the block and parts to find out that the books were not sold separately.

If some one could point me in the right direction that would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you .

Why do you think they need replacement ?

 

[Chucky5150]

Because one snapped in half.

Because one snapped in half.

If it snapped while torquing the bolt then you might be torquing to high.
The part number is 10-85802

Measure the bolt and then order it on line. Get some ARP's and replace them all

Toss out what I said previously, that was for rod bolts

Gm bolts from a 153, 181, 196, 230, or 250
