Question Engine Stand Bolt Size

Anybody know the bolt size I need to get to put a 5.4L on an engine stand? I've got a used engine coming through freight. I've already got 2 stands (one for the new engine, and one for the old), and I haven't pulled the old one yet.

I finally broke down and pulled one of the bolts from the transmission. To fit a standard issue auto parts store stand, you need 10mm x 1-5 bolts, 90mm long, grade 8.
