Default engine stand bolt grade?

I have just bought a engine stand so I can rebuild my engine. The stand didn't come with any bolts, am I ok using the bell housing bolts or will i need stronger grade bolts?

Hi Dan

The bell housing to engine bolts will be fine, plenty strong enough

If you find they are not long enough, slip out & get yourself a length of M10 studding.
Go for the self colour stuf as that tends to be 8.8 grade but bright zinc plated will be plenty man enough for the job.
