Default bolt size front harmonic balancer

Purchased the crankshaft rotation adapter http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...archTerm=80743 in order to turn over the engine by hand while the harmonic balancer is still attached. Does anyone know what size bolts I would need to attach the crankshaft adapter to the front of the harmonic balancer threaded holes?

the hole in the crank is a 9/16 tight thread, with a 5/8 bolt head, if that helps

The 3 bolts that hold the pulley on (where that adapter bolts) should be 3/8-24 (fine)

Thanks, went to Ace, picked up the bolts and worked like a charm. Unfortunately could only turn the engine over 3/8 around before it stops.
