Thanks for the info. Like you are saying it's uniform and I know the lengths and threads I need, such as M10 X 1.5 X certain lengths. It's the material and style that I'm at a loss for. Also like you're saying the threaded stud for the trans dipstick mount.

I was browsing through ls1tech and seen a few post from guys talking about problems with bolt heads being too big for the tranny mounts. Also I would like to install aluminum fasteners like the factory's for the A/C.

I might call some parts yards before heading to the dealer. I'm under the impression these things can cost upwards to $5 a piece.
