Head bolt options?
What are the available replacement for the uber expensive Jaguar head bolts.
Land rover seems like an option, but cannot find a part number nor what Landy used the Jaguar engine like the 2000 XKR. Anyone that can help?
ARP part number?
Felpro part number?
Beck Arnley number?
Victor Reinz number?

Head Bolts
I can tell you from first hand experience the LS bolts are identical. The Motorcraft list price is $10.28 each. If you go to a local ford dealer you will likely pay more. When i built my engine i used the Fel Pro kit from Rock auto part# ES72262 . It was $31.79 for a set of all required bolts for one head. I have not had any issues with them yet.. but they are made in China / Taiwan or some place over there. I am not sure of the quality but have yet to have any issues with them.
When i start the engine rebuild service i will be utilizing the Motorcraft units. All be it more expensive.. It is the OEM bolt in a FoMoCo box instead of a leaping kitty on it. If you would like OEM i can get them for you below MSRP but not by much.
Let me know if i can help.

I do know that they can be reused twice. Mine have no markings on them but i suspect they may have been off once before. I reinstalled them and had to remove them as one of the bolts showed a bit of thread in it. And sure enough it would not torque properly.
I have just finished drilling all ten holes and installing steel threaded inserts. Manufacturedr recomends not reusing the bolts as the threads may be deformed and may seize on the new threads. I will be posting a how to with pictures later.
Still curious about the Landrover part number.
