Does anyone know what the thread size is for the bolts that mount the transmission to the back of the motor. I recently tried putting my m62 onto an engine stand with what i thought were the correct bolts (getrag 260 bolts) because they were threading perfectly fine, ended up cross threading 2 holes. Is there anyone who can help me find the right bolts so that I can retap and get my swap started?
m62 bolt question, please help!!!

Although RealOEM doesn't specify thread pitch, I'd bet they are 1.5's...Does anyone know what the thread size is for the bolts that mount the transmission to the back of the motor.

2 M8's at the top, P/N 23 00 1 222 887
8 M10's around the rest P/N 23 00 1 222 888
2 M10's on driver's side starter blank P/N 12 41 1 434 052
Sounds to me like you didn't start them square... taps should be available for them pretty much anywhere...
