Bell Housing Bolts

[gtpeterp]

Does anyone know the proper specs for the bell housing to transmission
bolts? The ones I removed look a little shaky, and I want to replace
them with the proper size. I think they are 17mm, but I dont know the
length or if I should get grade 8's, etc.

Thanks for any help!

According to the parts manual, Plate #01, part #11 (8 req'd) 5/16"-24
pitch x 25mm long. Grade 5 will do nicely so you are not tempted to
over-torque them. Torque them to 18-21 Ft/Lbs. Keep in mind the one at
the bottom that is a special bolt with an alignment shoulder to align
the housing.
