Tranny to block bolt size (5.0)

[99SportX]

Does anyone know the thread size for the tranny to block bolts on the 5.0 in our X's? I would rather have somone tell me than drive 20 miles just to grab a bolt of the engine, although I can do that if necessary. I want to bolt my 5.0 to an engine stand, and need longer bolts than those that are to the tranny, but in the same thread size. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Man.. I went to Fastenal to get those exact same bolts for my 5.0/stand. I'll see if I have the size anywhere.

7/16-14, 4 inches in length. Have washers handy though.

Thanks a ton man. I really appreciate it. Now I can take my engine home and nestle it safely on a stand.

Just don't let it sit there for a couple years.. like mine has been.

I hope that won't happen. Unlike you, I don't already have a V8, so getting that engine in my sport is a high priority.
