Question 99+ valve cover/ coil mounting ?

Getting ready to do a head swap on my 98. I have the 99+ valve covers and coil mounting brackets in hand but have a question about the bolts.

It looks like I can re-use the bolts that currently fasten the coils directly to the 98 valve covers. These would be used to mount the coils to the new mounting brackets. However, I think I will have to look for new bolts that would allow me to attach the new mounting brackets to the new valve covers.

Can anyone provide me a size for these new bolts? Looks like 10mm?

Thanks,
Brian

I believe its 10 mm all around . you should be able to use the same bolts as long as they arent warped but id definately recommend new ones becuase they are torque to yeild and you def dont wanna mess up your new valve covers

If you are using brand new coil rails the threads aren't started.
