You need 25 UHL or under head length. I used part # 761-1002 on mine, this is a five pack so you will need three packs. I also bought some stainless lock washers at the local hardware store to keep them from backing out.

That part # is for arp, bought them at summit. As for the lockwashers I'm not sure on the brand, just walked in my local bolt supplier with the bolt in hand and told him what I needed he handed me a small box of lockwashers for free!

Measure the depth of the bolt hole in the head. Measure the thickness of your header flange. Add the two together and you will have your answer.
