I used to sell a drill/tap/threading kit to make a 7/16-20 bolt go into a stovebolt crankshaft, the same as the one used on later model small block V8's. There was no bolt at all on any stovebolt sixes from the factory. They were all press fit only on the balancers. The center bolt and heavy flat washer for a SBC is usually available at a local parts store's "help" section, and those are 7/16-20.
