Default What size bolt for putting LS1 on engine stand?

I have a standard Engine stand with the 4 different arms, need to know the size of the bolt for holding the LS1 on there, I dont know what size the bellhousing bolts are or if they are like the standard sbc size.

If I remember correctly, you need 10mm diameter threads. I've never found any bolts that were the perfect length, they were always longer than required so you also need a stack of washers for each bolt.
