Default bolt size help needed

I am putting the a/c on the 65 back together. Can someone please tell me the bolt size for the ground wire that goes to the compressor? It would be much appreciated. It's looks like quite a challenge to get it on with the compressor in place.

Thanks
Myron

That's item #16 (P/N 444684) bolt on sheet C1 in the C60 Section. I don't have an A/C car, but it's either a 5/16" or a 3/8" bolt - see which size fits the tapped hole in the compressor flange.
