Daniel Tinder I believe you are speaking of locks for the manifold bolts, I looked high and low for a locking method for the bolts but only came up with stainless wedge-lock washers, which act like a ratchet. Made by "Clips". I would prefere at solid locking method. Do you know of a supplier for the Y-Block engines? You say not to torque to spec, then what do you torque to? Part # 0154200-104 from JEG'S 12 years ago for $57. I used the aluminized strip gaskets (painted red to match the block), not torqued, just snugged down evenly. Manifolds not milled, but leveled at the shop on a huge belt sander. You might want to re-tighten after a few heat cycles.
