TMIC bracket: what nuts & bolts are needed?

My FC didn't come with a bracket for the TMIC but have managed to source one which should be here in the next couple of days. Was wondering if anyone could let me know what size bolts and nuts I'd need to secure it all down. Want everything to be ready so as soon as it comes I have all I need to fit it.

Cheers in advance

Awesome answer, cheers

Any idea of the bolt lengths? I know... I want the moon on a stick sometimes!

umm pretty sure they're M8x1.0mm threads with 12mm heads. all of them, to the block, to the top of the intake, and to the bracket.

most 10mm bolts are m6x1.0, some 10mm are M8, but not these.

That'll work. Are they all bolts or will I need some nuts too (keep the sniggering to a minimum, folks!)? Will probably buy a bunch anyway as it's not gonna break the bank too much.
