Hey guys,question for ya. I'm planning and getting ready to put my engine in the car and I'm not sure if these are the right bolts.I wasn't the one who took it apart,it was all in boxes when I got it. So do these bolts look right?

The original bolts that I've seen have a dog point.
Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.

    I think what you have there is a head bolt.

I didn't think these were right,do anyone have a picture of them? The guy that gave them to me said " ya that will work". :scratchchin:

I don't have a picture of the long bolt, it does have an extension on the threaded end to guide it into the bolt that is welded on the mount. 

I have a diagram of the other mounts (picture) and also see a link with an image at:

Who in their right mind would say

"The science should not stand in the way of this."? 

Science is just observation and hypothesis.  Policy stands in the way.........

Or maybe it protects us. 

I suppose it depends on the specific case.....

Here is a pic. The bolt in this pic is correct but you shouldnt need nuts.

Ok, judging by the hole in the mount I would think the bolt should be bigger
