Sorry if I am wrong here but the torque converter/flywheel cover what size bolts do I use to bolt it on I am scared to strip the threads and I am not sure how to figure it out.

these are a special thread. they are not your ordinary 5/16 or 5/8 sizes. the thread on them is more like a builders screw. you know what i mean?a very coarse thread like a roofing screw that goes into timber for example so if you dont have the originals anymore best try your local auto parts shop to get them.
