Starter bolt

What size is the starter bolt. 1988 Rx7 Se
I bought the car from my friend and its missing a starter, I got a starter but no bolts.
I looked at this thread but I cant figure it out.
https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...t=starter+bolt
I mean which one is the starter bolt.
Is it the one that needs a nut at the end?

Edit

So are these the bolts for the starter?
(1) 14 mm head - Length = 145mm (5 5/8 in) (with head of bolt)135 mm (5 1/4 in) (from bottom of head of bolt to end of bolt). Nut on opposite end. FINE THREAD
(1) 14 mm head - Length = 100 mm (3 15/16 in) (with head of bolt) 90 mm (3 1/2 in) (from bottom of head of bolt to end of bolt). FINE THREAD

I just looked at the tranny and it looks like it. The lenght looks to be right

Is the bolts already out?
If so can you measure the lenght of the bolt
9/10 the threads are fine threads. I just need to know what the lenght are.

I do believe that the short starter bolt has coarser threads. Beware.
