Default 5.3 on a engine stand

Does anyone know what size bolts I need to get to put my engine on a stand?

This is correct. Threaded into the bellhousing bolt holes. If I remember right, I used bolts that were about 3 inches long, shimmed back with a couple washers. This length may vary depending on how thick your flanges are on the engine stand.

Thanks. I went with 3 inch and they worked perfectly.
