crank bolt thread pattern?

I'm looking at doing a cam swap here soon and am going to make my own balancer install tool but can't seem to find any info on the thread pattern for the life of me. Anyone know what it is? I've used the search many times without luck

Thanks,

Josh

Looks great, would definitely work but unfortunately the only welding I can do is JB Welding lol I don't have any welding supplies at my disposal.

From memory, it is M16X2mm. I used threaded rod to make mine, bought it from McMaster-Carr. Length was 300mm.
