Valve cover bolt lengths?

I'm trying to buy new valve cover bolts, what's the length and the most recommended brand or type that I should get? Thanks

Do you have the original ones still?

Yes I do. I don't want to take them off yet. I wana do everything at once without having to take anything apart. I'm gonna do a complete valve job and replacing the valve cover with a new Edelbrock and rubber seal, so I wana put new bolts to create a good deal. I'm tired of oil leaks lol

I saw they have stud replacements on summit racing by ARP but I see they are all for aluminum heads or covers, so they are longer

I'd pull a bolt out and go to the local hardware store and get some nice stainless ones. Pulling one out won't hurt. :chevy:
