45 trans case top cover

[JSB55]

Hi, Guys ... had a crack in my 54 servi car trans case, but found a miracle worker who was able to weld it. He needs to re drill and tap one of the holes for the top cover screws. I'm away from home and my usual reference materials. What is the size, length, and thread pitch of those top cover screws? It's the -41 case used until 1973. Thanks!

Your case needs to be tapped for a 10-24 x 1/2" screw. The '64-'73 electric start cases were 12-24.
