This has some good information on the bolts. Not sure if you want front or rear - they are different sizes. http://ls1tech.com/forums/suspension-brakes/1186740-dont-let-your-friends-work-your-brakes.html
BTW - More important than the size is the size/strength. If you put a regular bolt on there, it will snap like a piece of spaghetti. Lots of threads where people have lost calipers while driving. (Not pretty.) I'd recommend getting the bolts from the dealer.

I'm doing C5 rotors with my oem LS1 calipers, I need longer bolts for the C5/brackets so they will fit. I thank you for the extra info, I got lucky and found caliper bolts here at my work, which are longer and grade 10.9 :)
I should have added the grade bolt you need for calipers in the 2nd post on this thread.
