Use the bellhousing bolts. Remove the flywheel before mounting it. If the engine will not mount without the spacers then use them, but in that case you will need to take a bolt to the hardware store (to compare threads) and purchase 5" longer bolts.

If you move the stand with the engine on it do so very carefully, and only do so with the engine head rotated either straight up or down to keep the weight centered. Don't ask me how I found this out ;-)
