Does that mean the ARP bolts will work?

I hope you got the e-mail reply I sent. E-mail is acting up. It shows as sent, but not sure.

I used a set of Dorman HPX bolts on mine. Dorman makes all the hardware you find in the "old time" parts stores. They used to make a hi-po line called HPX that was the equal to ARP type bolts. (they used to have a sign on the side John Force's funny car). I'm not sure if they are made any longer. Summit and Jegs no longer carry them. I think I bought mine from Summit.

I never compared the length of the Dorman bolts to stock, but they worked fine with both a Torker 2 and then Vic Jr intake.

Later,

I think the newer victors have bolt pads that might actually require a longer bolt.
