You could just use a snug fitting wooden dowel in a hole at each end of the block, some cut the heads off some old bolts if they have them, cut a slit in it so can be unscrewed, that's if you have any old ones.

If you've still got the arp studs just temporarily screw a couple of these into the block, fit the head so it's aligned on the studs then remove them and fit the new bolts.

As said above cut the heads of the old head bolts and use them.

I used some garden cane as dowels, but this didn't sound as professional to put down!!
