Should just be M10 bolts IIRC make sure they are grade 8.8 or higher





Scot's do it better in Kilts.

Hi

At the risk of getting shot down in flames I'd suggest that any bolt of the correct size and length would be suitable, the bell housing to block joint does not experience forces which would require the use of any above spec bolts. At the end of the day the easiest way to get bolts is probably to aquire them from a donor so this question shouldn't arise but if I had to ues B&Q specials for this application it wouldn't concern me as long as they were torqued and threadlocked.

Regards Mick

PS I'm fully aware of the relationship between torque and streach/grip but agian IMO it is not significant in this application
