1988 FC Antenna Thread Pitch

Looking to replace my ugly stock antenna with a stubby. Anyone know the thread pitch?

the antenna is retractable so it is built into the motor so there really is no thread pitch.
Take the antenna and actuator off and remove it.
Then place the Stubby in,tighten it down and connect the antenna lead..(you are now done!)

I got mine at Walmart..like 16 bucks?(Scosche)
