Default Torque convertor bolts? Size? Thread pitch?

I am finally getting back to work on my conversion... I have lifted my tranny into the truck today and realized I don't have the torque convetor bolts! Of course, the tranny is bolted into place now so I can't hardly take the TC with me to test fit bolts at the auto parts store. I'd like to get the TC bolted to the flex-plate today and get the transfer case in... soooo... anyone know the bolt size and thread pitch of TC bolts? Also, I was gonna ask about where to access the bolts but I think I found that while searching for the bolt info... I have to remove the starter to bolt the TC to the flex-plate, right? Is that correct? If so, I'll definitely have to do that before I slip the motor the rest of the way in... I'm afraid that in the future I'll have to either pull the motor or drop the front diff to drop the starter! DOH! Hopefully I can get around to a SAS before the starter ever goes! lmao... anyway... bolt size and pitch would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Coach... I mean Randy (I often forget who I really am)

Save yourself alot of time/trouble and just get them from the GM dealer parts counter. They had them in stock when I went. They're a very strong grade and pre-coated with locking compound.
