    I can check in a few hours, but IIRC, the threads into the manifold are 3/8-16, and the nut threads are 3/8-24.

    ITLKSEZ is correct on the size and thread pitches.

    Yep, shot is definitely much more important. :) It's funny with our memories, I knew that it takes a 9/16th wrench but I had to go verify it anyway. In this case, not a heavy duty over size nut, that equates to 3/8 bolt or stud size.
