    From memory 10mmx1.5 at least 125mm long buy some good high tensile washers aswell as the bolts will go through engine stand. I had 4 for mine and it was fine if you buy the packs from repco or the like they come with nuts aswell.

    Measure them yourself?

    If you can't do that, I don't know why you're putting it on an engine stand.
