What size bolts (and thread) do I need in order to attach an engine stand bracket to the 4.0 block

Also, the flexplate is still on, I am assuming I need to take that off to be able to attach the engine stand bracket. To do this, do I just use a breaker bar on the front crank pulley and take off the 5 center bolts on the flexplate?

You can make a tail light mount very easily with a piece of angle iron. Just drill a hole for the antenna and a hole for the bolt. Paint and done.
