Bolt length, t-350 to the engine?

Does anyone know what size the bolts are that attach the 350 turbo trans to a 350SBC?

I used studs. You can be sure you're torquing against the bellhousing and not the bottom of the hole in the block.

GM used 1 1/4" bolts. 1.5" are too long except maybe on the dipstick.
