You can reuse your OEM bolts 1 time. Yes it's true.

I got a set from O'reilly's....they had to order them, but they got them within a few hours.....but beware.....they were not hex head bolts but were 12 point instead....had to buy a deep 13mm socket from Sears and drill the center out a bit....I think the bolts cost me $30 or so.....

I have already re-used the bolts once...I am doing a complete overhaul of my engine and I am not takin any chances. I have looked everywhere nothing gives a specific listing for 1992 head bolts

The head bolts for any year 4.0L H.O. will work perfectly. You do not have to use a year specific head bolt.

Advance auto parts stocks them, get them there everytime, unless they come with the head like the last time...
