How you all doing I am having a problem with an engine and will like someone's help. I have a bolt out of a Conrad that came loose from an engine and destroyed the bottom end I will add some pictures off the Bolt. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Use Loctite on the replacement.

It is at work turn bolt you torque into 110 newton meters and then give it a 90-degree turn
 
Hi

Need some close up's of the bolt but it looks to me as though the thread on the bolt as sheared or was tightened in cross threaded

Are those square threads on that bolt as they seem to be when looking at the bottoms portion of the bolt in the attached picture?
 
Is it the correct bolt for the application? Long enough? What engine?
