What size bolts for mounting engine on engine stand....

[calum001]

Just got my new engine delivered and was wondering wheres best to bolt into to secure the engine to the stand and what size bolts to get, i don't have any bolts sitting about so if i can find out it will save me getting various sizes of high tensile bolts and see what fits !

m10 x 100mm should do it, to fasten to the bell housing face.

I normally use studding and nuts for mounting on stands. It's not high tensile so not quite so strong, but it doesn't need to be, and you can cut it to whatever length you need
