New frame/engine bolts. What type?

I can't believe you guys don't buy a thread pitch gauge.  They are so cheap and solve the problem of ordering the wrong sizes.

davidcumbria:
Does it help with internal threads on nuts or bores ? But fair enough comment  -got close to buying one once but then found I could count and measure threads accurately.

magpie114:
I’ve found this simple gauge handy. Picked it up at a show a few years back

Where would the fun be in that😄  But seriously, yes I should have invested in a thread gauge years ago as well as a tap and die set.

My tap and die set came with a thread gauge and it was inexpensive. If I was cutting a lot of threads I would buy something better but for cleaning threads the sets I have are ideal.
