I had to re-use my stock ones because nobody and I mean nobody had new ones. I sprayed WD-40 on them for like a week before they came out.

Check your local machine shop.
They usually can find some out off an old engine they tear down.

What about the Trickflow set?

If you search for "Ford Dowels", it will return this part number, FMS-M-6026-A302. I was going to use it for my rebuild before plans changed. Shouldn't take more than a couple of days to get to you if you can't find any locally. I believe its not but $10 or so.
