Per shop manual and as you noted you need to use the 59 to 62 front harmonic balancer bolt and washer to install the 63 & 64 harmonic balancers.
The bolt size is 9/16" - 18 and usually about 1 5/8" long...with a very thick large washer. You need the puller tool to get it off but just the large thick bolt and washer to put it back on. This bolt size is usually not one stocked in your typical hardware store but is the same bolt size used front bumper bracket to frame bolts. I have these and a washer with new cadmium plating for $5. If interested shoot me an email to jasonedge@nc.rr.com

Russ, I was answering Denny's Question "but what size are the 6 bolts for the pulley ?". I also have the correct installation bolt new for $5 + s/h.
If you get a harmonic balancer removal/installer kit, it will come with the correct size to thread into the crank end.
Richard needs the bolt that goes into the end of the crank, so he can torque down the balancer.
Denny, Per last entry on page 9-42 the pulley to harmonic balancer bolts are 5/16"-18 bolts. What is not listed is the bolt length which is 5/8" and use a standard 5/16" split/spring lock washer. If you need any of these bolts I have a bin full cleaned harmonic balancer bolts and can put a set of 6 bolts & washers together for say $3 + s/h.
but what size are the 6 bolts for the pulley ? thank yoiu
Glad you found it, as I forgot to look for the part info. I just tap it into place, with Loc Tite. or Permatex threadlocker. Freezing the balancer is a good idea, but I would worry about heating the sleeve.

I need to replace the bulbs for the speedometer cluster in my instrument panel..
Before I open up the dash, I want to have the necessary bulbs on hand.
Can someone help me determine what bulbs I need, the number of bulbs I need, and where to purchase them?
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

The temperature gauge of my 63 Eldorado does not work properly.
It goes slowly all the way up and stays there, while the true temperature is around 155-160 F (water in the radiator and/or the top of the thermostat housing).
Where should I start to solve the problem? The gauge itself, the temperature sensor, or the wiring? Or something else? The sensor is a new (aftermarket part)…
