What ever you change it to, change both the bolt/stud AND the nut.
Use a larger bolt and nut, don't ever "translate" into a smaller size. Since your flange and vessel are already built, you will need to measure the holes for the maximum new/replacement bolt/stud dia.

M64 is about 2½-inches. I would purchase 2½-UN8 studs. 2½-inch nominal OD, 8 threads per inch. Standard stuff for USA.
