Not just any main bearing bolt. I am after the unique bolt with a thread out of both ends so that a rear drop sump oil pickup can be supported.

These bolts are commonly fitted to F100's, Bronco's and 80's/90's Mustangs and US Fairmonts.

You wouldn't happen to have the rear engine lifting bracket off an EB-AU 5 litre too would you?

Clevo's with rear drop sumps (f100, Bronco etc) would have had this bolt but a reputable engine builder told me that Clevo main bearing bolts don't fit Windsors.

All 6 cyl Cortina's had one of these bolts too but alas they are different to 302W's too.

This lump came from a XE ......... ? . So it probably was originally from a 4x4?
Hmmmmm. Must look more into it I think. I thought it was the original engine from the xe, guess not. Thanks Jim
