I am looking for two of the longer head bolts that go under the rockers. One of my heads came with them all the same size, a 1/4 inch shorter than the outer two are supposed to be.
Thanks

John  If you have a Fastenal store close to you they have grade 8 bolts,I used them on my engine when it was rebuilt.If I remember right I had to cut a little off as they didn't have exactly the right length

John:

Keep in mind that the Fastenal bolts will have 5/8" hex heads, the originals have 11/16" hex.  Will require two different size sockets to torque the head.  I'm sure I have some used originals in my stash, let me know if you don't fine anything.
