The smallest of those are 1" in dimeter.

Do you think that's big enough???



Why would it matter if the SMALLEST of something is BIG ENOUGH?

Surely even you are bright enough to realize that the there must
logically be larger ones than the SMALLEST of something...


BECAUSE WE GENERALLY USE 3/8" OR 1/2" DIAMETER BOLTS ON ENGINE MOUNTS.


1. Do you think this is the only supplier of wedge washers in the world?

2. Why did you ssy, "Do you think that's big enough???"?

3. You don't suppose the original poster could just design the engine
