Thread sizes.
Hopefully a nice easy one...on the Vette are the majority of threads UNC and UNF? ( or neither 
) and do you use SAE wrenches?
Was talking to an engineer over here and was suprised at the amount of different threads used throughout the world. The guy makes custom nuts and bolts for people all over the world for special and one off applications....his workshop was supa
From the latest CNC machines to lathes over 100 yrs old!

I have the mixed variety! The advantage of having SAE and Metric is when an SAE bolt is severely corroded a metric socket fits with gentle persuasion by the hammer. Oh, by the way, '77 in the Great White North.
