I think they are m10x1.50. you would probably need about a 3 inch bolt

Look for grade 8 fasteners at a store that specializes in fasteners. Also, it is a good idea to use thick, hardened steel washers between the head of the bolt and the engine stand bracket. You will want to be sure that the bolts engage at least 1/2 to 3/4" into the block. This is one area in which it pays to exceed minimum levels of strength.
