i know this info is in here somewhere, but i cannot find it! i dont know if im not wording my search properly, but anyways, does anyone know what size bolts i will need to mount a 3vze to an engine stand? i dont have any bellhousing bolts with it to measure from, basically just the block and crank.
thanks, brad

 

anyone?...................bueller,bueller,bueller?

 

I used my tranny bolts (bellhousing bolts) with some washers, worked fine for me.

 

I believe its 12mm X 1.25 thread I dont know stand you have so your length may vary .If you get them from ACE hardware the part number is MHCB-12FG those are the ones I used.

 

awesome, thanks! yea, i didnt have any bellhousing bolts as i got just the block/crank/pistons, and its in a crate, flywheel side down, was hoping to get the size before renting the hoist to get it out and put it on the stand. thanks again, brad

 

I used M12x1.25x80mm bolts to bolt up a 5vz engine to an engine stand. 5vz and 3vz engine blocks should be the same.

 

sweet, i was thinking 70-80mm length would work, ill make sure and have plenty of washers just in case. thanks again everyone, hopefully I will be able to rent the hoist tomorrow, it was out this weekend and today.
