Bellhousing bolts? (Length, Diameter, and Thread Pitch)

Does anyone have their engine and/or tranny out? Planning on doing a clutch sometime soon?

I have a 12A engine from one car and a transmission from another car sitting here in my living room. Neither included bell housing bolts to hold the engine and transmission together. (I think I have the starter somewhere too.)

They're all supposed to go into a currently power plant free chassis that's not here at home.

Can you measure your bolts so that I may stop by Home Depot or somewhere to pick up proper fasteners to put this all together.



My plan is to bolt everything together and start it up like on a test bench, then truck it up to the car, drop it in, and be able to drive the car home rather than tow it home.

If you could, also reference them by "clock" position either facing the flywheel or transmission input shaft.

I know they are M10x1.25 , can't remember the length though.
Just buy them plenty long and cut to length, I did.
