Have a '94 Talon 2.0L that had a blown head gasket.
Have a new Felpro HS9627 gasket for it, had the head machined level and a valve job.

Bolt is approx. 111mm, including the 12pt head.
Diameter is approx. 11mm, critical thread length is approx. 29mm.

Not looking to boost this, just keep it NA (first head rebuild) but can't find proper replacement head bolts.
Had Felpro ES71175 and 71174 and they don't match up perfectly.
Don't want to drop the coin for ARP studs, might just clean these up and reuse them..

I just bought ARP Head Studs and threw them in my 95 GSX (7 bolt). My head gasket was never blown, I pulled the head for a cylinder head job with a valve job and new seals just like you.

Generally, don't re-use head bolts: https://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/reuse-stock-head-bolts.406426/. BUT if you're not running boost through it, it probably wouldn't be an issue. If you're interested though I'll give you mine for free if you pay for shipping, they're in good shape, and they're gonna sit around for an eternity, so I'd rather have someone make use out of them. PM me if interested.
 

Dude. I swear, I was googling for hours.
This saved me so much more time, huge thanks!

Seems like the PO or owner before had a broken head gasket, the head was previously machined and valves/springs were definitely aftermarket.
With so much material being taken off the head, I figured it'd be best to get some new TTY bolts... especially since I don't know the history of the existing bolts in there.\
Appreciate the offer, though!
