I purchased a B&M holeshot 2400 torque converter for my TH350 that came today. I had picked up some ARP converter bolts in 3/8-24 assuming that was the correct size, I was wrong. It came will 3/8-16 bolt, but they are only grade five. ARP does not have a 3/8-18 converter bolt so I was wondering what would be the next best thing? Should I just get some grade 8 bolts from the hardware store? Will the head on a normal grade 8 bolt stick up to far, the ARP bolts have a shorter head? Thanks

That should work, try and find some that are made in the USA, the big box stores usually have inferior fasteners. I like to get that kind of stuff from ACE or a place like we have here in Tucson, Copper State bolts.
