Bolt question

Bellhousing to engine takes 7/16-14 bolts, you will have to get the correct length on your own because there are different lengths. The 4 bolts that hold the transmission to the bellhousing are metric and I believe they are 12mm x 1.75. These should all be the same length. Your flywheel bolts are the ones that have the thin head on them. I am pretty sure they are 1/2-20 about 1 1/2" long. These should be pretty apparent in the box of bolts you have now. There are 6 of these and they are all the same. The pressure plate bolts are 8mm x 1.25 about 3/4 long. There are 6 of these too. You will not be able to get every one of these bolts at the auto parts store. I know they don't have the flywheel bolts. But the rest of them you can get. They won't be identical, but you can get some that will work.

GRADE 8 BOLTS on the flywheel, pressure plate, and bellhousing!!

I put grade 8 in EVERYTHING, but what I just mentioned is paramount.

ARP makes flywheel bolts, those are gonna be the hard ones to find at the parts stores.
