Need to find some bolts for T-5 swap

I found the size of the bolts i need for the Tranny to bellhousing: BOLT,TRANS(M12X1.75X40) from http://www.compnine.com/index.php?u=...04&grouptype=B

Also the bolts on the flexplate will work for a flywheel right?
Also are there bolts I am going to need for the pressure plate as well?

But what grade should I buy?

I refuse to pay 5 bucks a bolt.

Re: T-5 to Bellhousing bolts

Not sure its completely required, but I like the strongest bolt I can get. I would try to find 10.9 It's just a regular hex head bolt right? If so, I would just go to a local hardware store.

Re: T-5 to Bellhousing bolts

Those have the Torx in the head of the bolt also. That comes in handy for the upper right bolt when it's in the car, but you're car. If it was me, I'd just go to the dealership and pay the $20 for the bolts, better than the cost of everything else if those other bolts aren't strong enough
