Supercharger "shroud" or cover bolts....

The supercharger cover has four bolts that holds it to the brackets on top of the supercharger. Can anyone tell me the size of them please? I think they are 8mm.

Thank you

talking about what socket to use or the thread? It's a 10mm socket, the bolt itself is an M8 thread (or so i think)

Yes I need to know the thread size not the socket that fits them. If its a 10mm socket for the head them it should be a 6mm thread. Can someone verify ?

Awesome. Thank you. I have to make a set of stanchions for a customer to "float" his cover at shows. I coated the bolts but gave them back before I measured them (idiot I am)

^^^^^I can confirm the above is correct. 10mm socket hex size, M6x1.0 thread pitch. Took a look at mine and checked the threads with my tap & die set.
