Anyone with a motor out of your car!!! URGENT!

I REALLY need to know the lengths of all the bolts used for bolting the engine to the transmission, i have some of them, but not all of them... cause i was not the person to take the motor out in the first place.

i know they're 10mm with the 14mm flanged head, and hardened, but i need to know the pitch and the lengths of each bolt.

basically, the one i REALLY need is under the starter, the one that is recessed, and really long.

i need to get this all done so i can get the car running, the Chevelle with no heat or choke is not doing too well in the 20 degree weather.

I dont have exact measurements but most of the bolts are between three and four inches aside from the starter bolt that threads from the front of the motor which is closer to six or seven inches long

hope it helps

peace

Bump for ya! I feel your pain: I drove the ailing but heated 7 into work today due to a stuck-open theromstat on the daily driver.

My outed motor still has the tranny bolted onto it, and I can't tear it up at this moment due to lack of garage space.

C'mon guys, help this dude out.

i'm pretty sure they're all unique.... 10mm with a 14mm head that looks like its got a washer permanently attached to the bottom of the head.

they're the only ones i know of that look like that.

modern 10mm bolts have 16mm heads.

I'll be separating the 12A from the 5 spd on my '80 soon, so if you don't get the answer before then I'll let you know.
