Don't quote me on that, but M12x80 or 85 sounds like what I wound up using.

I'm using the stock transmission mounts. I butchered up the original trans mount brackets to use as a spacer between the cross member and the bolt. The round hole on the cross member was ground out to a square'ish hole to hold the OE mount in place while torquing. I know the color quality is off, but it's otherwise difficult to get a picture of the high gloss pieces in a dirty engine bay.
Also, note my two LEFT frame rails that I was given my kit.

I unfortunately have not mocked my engine up yet. I'm making my own custom pedestal mounts with a different poly isolator. The placement of the C5 mount is awful and creates all sorts of fitment / clearance issues. I am instead making a mount that will go directly to the front Renegade cross member, eliminating the left / right rails that otherwise interfere with the exhaust and starter. I'll probably start fabbing those up this weekend.
