Bolt size and pitch question

[BHIGGINS2@domain.elided]

There should be studs that hold the bell housing onto the engine with two 
bolts at the top.  The studs are 8 mm x 1.25 thread pitch where they go into 
the engine block.  The other end of the stud which receives a nut is 8 mm x 
1.0 thread pitch.  If the studs have been replaced with bolts they should be 
8 mm x 1.25 thread pitch.  There are locator pins on the block which fit into 
the bellhousing so there is little threat of the bolts breaking (shearing) 
and the engine dropping even if cheap bolts were used - use the best you can 
find.
