Bolt Dimensions and Thread Pitch

Hello,
I am kind of new here so I will introduce myself, My name is Chris, I am a classic japanese car enthusiast. I own a 1981 Mazda Rx7, a 1980 Toyta Celica GT, and a daily driven 1990 Honda Prelude SI. My girlfriend owns a 1989 Toyota Corolla SR5, and a GT-S of the same vintage. Her dream car has always been an MKI MR2, we found one, a 1986, in almost perfect condition at the local boneyard. Its motor was in the 'Frunk', and the interior was filthy beyond recognition. We purchased it and the 4AGE that was in the wrong location, had it towed home, and I set to work...
The Transmission was set in the interior with bits of a 4AFE laying all over. I have cleaned it up and it has taken a major turnaround, I have completely rebuilt the engine, and I am ready to attach the transmission when I realized my current plight.

I have no bolts to attach the transmission to the engine! I need to purchase a new set and I would greatly appreciate it if someone would provide me with the information I have requested in the thread title. It would also help if I had the same for the engine and transmission mounts, the local autoparts store carries the grades of bolt that I will need I just need the thread pitch, bolt diameters and lengths. Or if you have a set I can purchase please, by all means PM me, I have cash to make a purchase even with shipping.
Thank you,
Chris

Why not get a new set from Toyota? It's better to have the right ones than to overthink it, looking for thread specs and dimensions so you can buy them from some other place. If you don't have an MR2-friendly dealership you like to work with, I can help - email me at awillis@lithia.com.

That is what ended up happening. I am about two hours from a decent Toyota Dealership. So I just sucked it up, and drove there. I actually didnt expect them to have anything I needed. I suppose it would have been smarter to call ahead. I have all of the bolts I need, and the install was completed some time ago.
Thanks,
Chris
