Tranny-to-engine studs - 2 liter

[Janice & Steve Ashby <sjash@domain.elided>]

Hello,

I discovered on the 74 GTV engine that I just pulled for the first time
that the DPO had used 8 mm coarse nuts (as opposed to fine thread) on the
transmission mounting studs.  I'd like to replace them - is there a source?
 I called Centerline and Ferrari of Denver (they are an Alfa parts dealer)
and neither have them.  Should I just make some?  Can anyone confirm if
they are 8mm coarse where they thread into the block and fine for the nut?
The DPO went as far as to drill one out and replace it with a bolt with the
head shaved down.
