What car are you working on Mr. Big head 
If your looking for the one that screws into the motor it self, its Metric. I only have an Inch screw gauge so your SOL. Looks like I need to go get one for metric screws. Santa forgot that when she went shopping.
It is 1/4th of an an inch long.

depends on the motor I think. Stock motors seem to be consistant with 2mm while mods seem to take 2.5mm. The only one that I've used that doesn't play along with the rules are the mamba's which are standard I believe. As far as length I'd say 5 or 6mm is sufficient.
