[V8] Anyone know the bolt specs for the bellhousing?

[Ingo Rautenberg]

Steve,

Most are12mm x 60 or 80 for manual tranny, with a few 10mm IIRC.  Guess it
depends on how thick the engine stand "arms" are ~2cm would be my guess, so
maybe 40mm or so would be ideal with a few washers if needed.

HTH

Doggone it ... I've been wanting to get that spare engine bolted to my
stand so that I can work on it ... and I just haven't had a chance to
pull up FA to get the thread specs so I can go out and buy some bolts to
do so ...

Does anyone here know off the top of their head the thread size and
pitch of these bolts?  It would be great to hear if there is a
particular length that works well with an engine stand ... I suspect it
would be a little shorter than the standard bolts for the bellhousing
...

TIA!
