    you could be right on the bolts. i just cant remember. ive been working on chevys lately and they seem to do every bolt one size smaller than ford. so its hard to remember who uses what. i do think fords trans bolt heads use a 5/8s bolt head which should be a 7/16s bolt. i also seem to remember that the two top bolts are shorter than the 4 side bolts.

    I just bought 7/16" x 14 - Grade 8 bolts for my manual transmission bell housing installation. I bought 1 1/2" for the top bolts, 2" for two of the side bolts and 2 1/2" long for where my clutch slave cylinder bracket will mount.
