Help with B20 bolt sizes, I'm very confused! Are they metric or standard?

posted by  someone claiming to be bill w. on  Mon Jul 31 10:25 CST 2006 [RELATED]

I'm very confused about the variety of bolts in my B20. The engine has been replaced and rebuilt, and I am having a heck of a time figuring what hardware goes where. Everyone says it's Swedish, so it must be metric right? Well after much trial and tribulation, I've determined the flywheel crank bolts to be 3/8 24 standard! Next hurdle the engine transmission bolts, the one's that go into the block are metric 10 x 1.75. The lower ones that go into the aluminum brace are 5/16 standards! Now I've noticed the head bolts are standard! What is going on here? Any help please?
