I have some aluminum edelbrock heads and they suggest the uber expensive 254-3708 12point head bolts. Can the 154-3601 be used? Are they stepped from 7/16" to 1/2" and can I use the washers that come with Arp or buy the Edelbrock bushings?

I went with ARP studs and bought the edelbrock 1/2" bushing kit.

Engine Might have to get a Dart block but don't want to and if I do, then 363 instead of 331. Thoughts on what I've already bought so far.......
