Hello:
Working on a 1927 Coupe and wondered if someone could tell besides the head bolts which bolts on the engine need to be nickel plated.
Thanks Steve

The 2 bolts for the water outlet/fan bracket, and 2 bolts for the water inlet are dome shaped head nickle plated bolts like the head bolts.

I believe the manifold clamp bolts are nickel plated on the Improved Ford as well.
