Default Going "nuts"...

Can someone tell me the size of the nuts that secure the plastic shroud protecting the radiator (I believe). The shroud screws in from underneath my vette. Unfortunately I don't have a lot of nuts laying around to experiment with... OK, let the jokes begin...

My 76 has 5/16" nc (coarse thread) . If yours aren't the same, than I'm sure they would be 1/4" nc, I doubt bigger.

Take care,

Loren
