Finally got my engine stand... I need some help finding the size of the engine bolts needed to secure a 2.5L NA to the stand.
Thank you.

I'll see if I can find the bolts I used. I'm pretty sure they were metric.
Are you going to hang it from the flywheel housing or the block itself?
Either way, I think the threads are the same, so you might just take out one of the flywheel housing-to-bellhousing studs and get bolts with that thread pitch.

If you find the size of the bolts you used let me know. Would be great.
Don't know yet how I am going to hang it. I need to be able able to run the engine once hanged.Never done anything like this before. I am looking forward to it though...
Thanks

Not to sure about the running it on an engine stand idea. If you are only supporting it from the rear, please have someone film it.

I need to do some work on the engine first. When ready to run I'll have support at the engine mount as well. Then, engine mount support off, and back to fix a few more things (I am sure)....
