Doh should of thought of that one too alright fair enough

What are you trying to figure out?

The AMC six uses "four bolts per cylinder" - meaning each cylinder has a square of screws around it, and the screws not on the ends serve double duty (two cylinders each.)

Look down the driver's side of the cylinder head, outside the valve cover, and you'll see a row of studs - about 7/16". This is one row of head screws. The other row is under the valve cover, directly across from them.

I'd have to find my pix to pass along to give you more specifics - although they're of bare heads, and not heads as mounted (you'd still get the idea, tho.)

90Blue XJ: NO IT WON'T DO! Didn't you read the request? That pic doesn't show the bolts!

Its for the guide I'm making It would seem as if I misplaced my head shot.

My bad. Shoulda read more carefully!!!

Ziploc bags are cheap - but dissolve in engine oil. I've got to go through a bunch of stored fasteners I was going to measure out and figure out what I took them off of now...

The idea isn't a bad one - but suggest that the screws be wiped off of excess oil before they're bagged. It doesn't take long for engine oil to dissolve the polyethylene baggies!

NB: SAE/ISO wrench size equivalences:
5/16" ~ 8m/m
7/16" ~ 11m/m
9/16" ~ 14m/m
3/4" ~ 19m/m
1-3/16" ~ 30m/m

Those are the more common ones. Just about every fastener on the AMC six is sized SAE/inch, whatever the head style (Torx-style heads can have SAE or ISO threads under them - I believe the throttle body screws are either 5/16"-18 or 3/8"-16, but they're definitely SAE. If you like, I can pillage through your RENIX disassembly guide - I already grabbed a copy - and give you something more definite on your sizes. You can also see what screw sizes I know if you check out the fastener size chart in the Tech section of my website.)

If you're willing to pass along the original doc (you probably did it in Word, Works or OpenOffice. I use MSWord2000, if that's important to you,) I can make changes, highlight them, and pass it back to you for final review.

It's a good idea (something I'm mildly surprised I haven't done myself,) and I just want to help. Maybe I can even find my digital camera and take some additional pix for you - gotta figure out where I left that thing last time...

Some help would be apreciated. I have the original photoshop files so I can edit the sizes.
I'll shoot you the original when I get home didn't bring my laptop to work today.

I'm really suprised I havn't seen someone else do this either. I'm tearing her down for a stroker build so I wanted to record everything anyway.

Some sensor pics would be great most of mine were heavily damaged when the guy I bought it from pulled the motor. Also the wrench sizes for them I used a crescent I dont have wrenches that big lol.
