All new parts engines need to have a bolt kit. Finding all the correct size, length, grade, and type has been a real treasure hunt. Dowels and O rings can be elusive. You can't afford to buy each bolt from the dealer. A valve cover bolt is $5.00 X 10 bolts per cover X 2 covers = $ 100. Solution for me is going to the local salvage yard and harvesting a lot of used parts. Billy will be so proud of me.
