Yea i guess that works. So how thick are the tranny ears on the (I have no idea what transmissions the v8 cars use)? Reason I ask is the bolts they gave you have a whole lot of shank to em... I guess you could make them work with a whole lot of washers, but I'd have concerns about the shank bottoming out.
In the future request allthread bolts / ones with no shank.
Just checked google maps and it looks like you've got a few Fastenall stores in Raleigh. They specialize in nuts and bolts, though they do sell other things. Find a bolt that fits in the block, see how far deep it goes then add that length to the thickness of the bellhousing ears. They most likely will have your bolts in stock, if not they can get special order stuff within a few days. Also, you can get them in regular hex and won't have to deal with those inverse torx heads!
Oh yeah they're also cheap as shit too. Less than $10 for everything probably.
That website is pretty handy. I'm also thinking of a 5 lug for a BBK.
I just ordered the clutch and flywheel so I can try* to drop the engine in this weekend but my engine doesn't have any bell housing bolts..where could I get some without going to LKQ

if you find the measurements or a place to get them would you post it? I am in the same boat.
