Default 4.0 xkr valve cover/coil cover bolt lenght??

Hey. Im looking to pick up some ARP bolts for my valve and coil covers to clean up the engine bay. I believe the thread size is m6 x 1.0 at least for the valve covers but I am unsure of the lengths. Ive seen a few engines with stainless bolts soooooo....




THANKS!!!

JEPC doesn't give size for the camshaft cover bolts but shows the coil cover bolts (item 13) as M5 x 12mm.

The cam cover bolts are a machined configuration to contain the isolator and would not be a standard off the shelf bolt. There are also 2 types as shown on JTIS one is a stud configuration that will hold wire mounts or the dipstick bracket and the others are hex head.
Dealer or breaker is the only source I know of.

The bolts are special but they can be cut and the isolators used on new ones. Ive done it before on other cars. When Im don't with my fiasco Ill post the info for others.:O) Thanks!
