i found the hollow style bolts at my local ACE hardware store. they werent in the big bins with standard bolts they were in teh plastic slide out boxes for specialty itmes.

I will check that out. I looked at the log manifolds and it appears that they will use bolts of all the same length. The Ram Air manifolds appear to have a couple different lengths.
