Michael,

As I understand your question...

The first problem is that the fasteners on 100s (BN1/2) engines are
Whitworth (55=C2=B0 thread pitch angle) BSF (British Standard Fine).  As su=
ch a
3/8" BSF fastener has 20 tpi.

A 3/8 X 24 tpi fastener is a standard UNF, ANF or SAE Fine thread,
basically a US Hardware store fastener, and is totally incompatible!  These
not only have a different tpi, but they are a 60=C2=B0 thread pitch angle.

-Curt
