I am assembling the final bits and pieces for my GTC A/C installation. I need to replace the stud on the right side of the front cover with a longer one in order to attach the compressor bracket.
I can't find the P/N or length in the parts book. Can anyone tell me the thread size that goes into the crankcase? The nut end is 8mm x 1. Or if anyone knows a source for this unusual stud I would be grateful.
Of course I will know as soon as I remove it, but I want to minimize downtime by having it on hand.
Thanks, Tom in Socal.

Does this help at all? These give lengths of studs.

Thanks for the response Kevin.
Unfortunately my car is a later model GTC that the parts manual does not always cover accurately. Sometimes I need to refer to the 365 2+2 or Daytona book.
GTO has recently improved their website with parts diagrams and some pricing, so thanks for reminding me of that source.

Re: 330 engine front cover stud
In general, Ferrari used studs with a coarser thread for the block end and then a finer thread for the nut end. This gives better threads for the end screwed into the aluminum block.
