trying to put my LS engine onto my engine stand. i got 2 bolts in, the top left hole wasn't agreeing with me, and the furthest to the left bolt i'm not sure where it goes, because the hole thats covered by the stand's arm in the second picture seems too small for my M12x1.25 bolt. I took the bolt back out of the hole that wasn't agreeing with me (hard to turn) and it was dirty inside.. i feel like an idiot for not cleaning the holes first
The furthest hole to the left, i don't even know which is for the stand to bolt into. Is it the hole the stands arm is covering, or maybe the hole just above that?
I cleaned out the hole, do you guys think it looks stripped? the bolt gets tight when i try it now still, i dont want to make it worse. I bought a tap & die set, but its only got M12.1.5 and M12x1.75.. i need M12x1.25, which is the size of my bolt. Right?
