Default gearbox screwz

Hello guyz,

Last week I've mounted the rebuilded gearbox on my chevy (blazer 4.3 1992 4WD. 1GNDT13Z2N2207291).
Unfortunately the gearbox was dismantle by the guy I bought the chevy... And I miss some fixing screws for the gearbox to the engine case.
My sister who lives in florida asked a chevrolet dealer for the screw but he said that they don't have them to sell because they are standard bolts.
But!!!!... with metric I will for sure found what I need but with imperial measures I don't understand anything...
So here is my question...
Does someone knows the size of each of the 6 bolts who fix the gearbox on the engine case??
thanks a lot for your help.

Ok the bolts you are looking for are "3/8 x 16 coarse x 1 1/2 standard-thread bolts", And just incase you dont have your 3 torque converter bolts they are "M10 x 1.5". Hope that helps you out

WOW... I thanks you very much my friend. It is great!!
I will searching for them.
My sister in florida used to have an offer from the Chevy-guy. 80$ for the bolts.
It seems to be a little bit expensive isn't it??

D'you think it is ok??

Thats way to much money, You can go anywhere that sells bolts near you, Give them the size i gave you, And buy the 6 bolts you need for $5 to $10 us dollers.
