carbed LS1 - carb bolts Building a carbed LS1 with an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake. Just about done with the build but these bolts weren't included and I need to run to the hardware store.
I'm almost embarassed to ask this but does anyone know what size these bolts are that bolt the carb to the intake manifold?
I assume they're metric because the bolts that hold the intake to the heads are metric but that's as far as I know. Thanks for any help/info

update Went to Autozone, got a carb stud kit, worked out perfectly. I think the threads that go into the intake manifold are 5/16"-18 though.
This is the kit I got (instructions say to use a 1/4" socket but that's wrong, I used a 7/32" socket):
So in case someone's building a carbed engine and has never done it before, hope this helps.
