Bolt holes for the bell normally are not dead ended. So measure the thickness of the gearbox ears, + the depth of the holes, and they can be at least that long. Should not hurt if they are + and extra 1/4" but not necessary

Well I know one thing if you have a set of bolts for an iron bell, don't try to use them on an aluminum bell, they aint long enough and will back out on their own.

learnt that the hard way.

Have iron bell. Top two holes are open. Bottom two are dead ended.

You can get hardened bolts from ACE that will work.
