Dowl pins

I need to pick up a set of offset dowel pins for my bellhousing install on the 455. I find 2-diameters .621 & .625. Which is correct for the 455? Its confusing the two diameters are listed

Thanks

Pat, I'm not following you. Are you needing to replace the dowel pins on the motor to fit the bellhousing?

Back to the top to see if someone else can help you!

I use the Lakewood offset dowels, which are available in .007", .014" and .021" offset. Because they are a press fit, I drill them 17/64" and tap 5/16 x 18 thread so I can use a slide hammer to pull them out. That is how I remove the stock dowels from the block too.

Good info thanks. I need to get the offset dowels to line up the input shaft of the TKO 5 speed correctly John.
