Does anyone know the size of the male threads on the inlet side of the Vectra M2 pump?

The major thread diameter is 62.98mm which I assume is really 63mm and the thread pitch is 3.45mm

can you measure the minor diameter for me please.. Thanks
 
Measuring the minor is complicated. Special equipment and techniques are required. I seem to recall a small rod is placed in the threads and then a measurement is made from the rod to the root on the opposite side.

Also the threads are not uniform. Normal threads have a 60 degrees on both sides. Mine are 90 on one and 60 on the other.
