Carb Mounting Bolt and Nuts?

The 2 nuts that mount the Carburetor to the engine block are called what, does anyone know? I'm workin with a 200 engine, with a 1barrel Carb(original stock), and we just got the carb taken apart and cleaned and put back together, and I stupidly lost one of the bolts and nut. They are fine thread bolts. Any idea what they are called so the idiots at Autozone know what to look up? Sorry but I had a few bad dealings with them today, and I ask myself why do they work there if they have no clue about cars? Eh well no need to go on and rant, lol, any help would be MUCh appreciated, thanks.
 
well its a 5/16 fine thread if that helps.

5/16 fine thread stud? forget autozone and head to the hardware store. You will have a lot more luck.
 
It depends on what head/carb/studs you are using....

My carb is held on with 3/8" fine thread nuts (3/8 x 24)
 
Well we're gonna try putting it on tomorrow morning, but as of now I went and purchased a 5/16 Fine thread stud, and it started to turn in the engine mount nicely, so looks like that's gonna work. Thank you very much for the info, I really do appreciate it.
