Flywheel nut thread

So I posted in the 1st gen section looking for a little bit of information. I bought a rebuilt engine from an ex-racer, and when I went to install my resurfaced flywheel, I realized that the flywheel nut threads on the E-Shaft were a bit boogered. I am trying to figure out what the proper size is for a flywheel nut so I can source a threading die. Jeff20b in the 1st gen section told me that it's a 1.5 mm/turn thread pitch, but I'm looking for the diameter and thread pitch.

Something like:

29x1.5
30x1.5
31x1.5

Thanks a ton guys.

Just get a thread file, they will have 8 different pitches. They cost about $15. Here is a good picture of one.

Any fastener place will have them.
