Help with XLR8 side engine mount bolt size pls

Im having my XLR8 engine mounts put in but my mechanic doesnt want to use washers for the side mount bolt. Does anyone know what size and pitch bolt i need, or is it just a 10x60 without the collar?

It should be 12X1.25 and I believe the bolt we use is 5mm shorter so 60mm should be good.

Thank you, but i am having an extremely difficult time finding a partially threaded M12 with 1.25 thread pitch that is 60mm long
any chance you can provide a link to order one if you can find it or someone else is welcome to chime in

You can also just use a couple washers. It will do the same thing. Use a flat washer and a lock washer or two flat washers.
