Default 6.0L & T56 install ?--need slave cylinder bolt size and flywheel dust cover soln

Per title I'm trying to install my T56 and of course my "drop in" T56 didn't include the bellhousing to block or tranny bolts. Found that size (M10X1.5X40), but also need the 2 bolts for the slave cylinder. Almost an hour of searching and haven't found yet? Anybody help?

Also, What is the flywheel dust cover soln? I can't find an LS1 T56 dust cover on the web (lots of discussion on the discontinued lt1 dust shield). What are the rest of you doing? I'd like to bolt the tranny in today (assuming I can get these bolts), can the dust shield be added later by loosing the bolts slightly?

Thx much!!!

Edit: Called chevy dealer, found size is M6 X 1 X 16. Fastenal has them locally.

I know this thread is old but just in case anyone else finds this in a search the bolts are
M6x1.0

Hope this helps someone!

As far as the dust shield is concerned, when i bought my lt1 t56 it didn't come with one. After i installed it, i used some cardboard to make a template on some 18 or 16 gauge sheetmetal, cut it out, drilled holes, massaged the shape with a hammer and dolly a bit and painted it. Didn't come out too bad at all and has not caused me any problems. I have a picture somewhere at home that i will post if i remember.
