TPI Tappet Verification

[Ron/IA]

After looking thru all catalogs (both printed & online), and then doing a search here on Fordbarn (which I should have done first); I finally found the info I was seeking.

A thread referred me to Vince's sight which stated; an adjustable self-locking tappet has a 24 pitch bolt (24-threads per inch).

I am guessing the double-nut adjustable tappet also has 24 pitch bolt too.

Am I correct?

Thanks,

One thing I want to add is Fordbarn is a absolute wealth of information. Not only daily from Model A'ers asking questions, but in the archives.

It just takes a little practice using the search function.

Questions again - Am I correct that the double-nut adjustable tappet has a bolt with 24-threads per inch?

Thanks,

Since I didn't receive a definitive answer to my question on how many threads per inch are on the bolt used in the double-nut adjustable tappet; I sent an enquiry to some of the major vendors, and I thought I would pass along their information.

All the vendors answered my enquiry and stated the TPI of the bolt used in said tappet is 24.
