I have searched google with no definite answer...

I'm starting my rebuild on my 7mgte. I purchased a motor stand, and I'm not sure what kind of bolts to use on it.

I have been told by my machine shop, that I should not use grade 8 bolts. He says they aren't strong enough to hold the weight of an engine.

Is there a certain type of bolt used for engine stands?

Thanks guys!

I won this thread. Not like the last one asking the same question a couple weeks ago.

Grade 8 is the strongest you can get at a hardware store and more than enough to hold it on there.

Ok cool, that's what I thought. I just didn't want my block falling on the floor. Is there a certain length of bolt, or should I just get them as long as they come?
