Engine stand
I've done some searching, but finding a definate answer was nil. I have a 350 coming out and need to find the right size bolts to mate it to the stand. Knowing what size bolts/spacers I need will save me a ton of time and gas. The shop is an hour from me, and I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't a hardware store for miles in any direction. Can someone please advise me? I hear they might be 3/8ths 16, and grade 8 is a no brainer. Here's a pic of a stand like the one I'll be using.[IMG]

Bolts are cheap compared to gas... why not just take enough (plus a few spares) of each size...
