Hi, I need to purchase some bolts to mount a 6.1 on my engine stand. I believe they are metric (8mm) and I am guessing they need to be at least 120mm in length. I also know the strength rating is different for metric bolts and I don't know what the equivalent is for grade 8. Can anyone enlighten me on this? And, any sources for buying these? Lowe's/Home Depot come up empty. Thanks for the help.

3/8 x 16 bolts,you'll need to measure your setup to ensure the correct bolt length. I use the Ace next to my house as they carry every useful thing that the big guys don't.

Grade 8 is equivalent to grade 8.8 metric. I also think there is a metric grade 10.xx something but probably overkill
