i need help finding a part
i got my block back from the machine shop and they only returned 2 of the 4 parts i need. here is what im looking for. they are the hollow pins that sit in the block and hold the head gasket and head in place when you bolt them down. can i install the head without them? i cant see why i need them while the engine in on a stand. and where would i obtain these parts from other than a dealer?

Yes you need the dowels to keep the head located.
I believe you are looking for #12570326 -Cylinder Head Dowel there sold as a single.
I have gathered alot of part numbers here for reference. https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...umbers-428941/
