If you are replacing your cam retainer plate with a new one you will need to order new bolts because the plate is made to accept counter sunk screws now. It is used for several engines and the new design was used for clearance on VVT engines. New style bolts look like this.


If you are reusing your old cam plate the bolts would be the same lenth but without a countersunk head.

This is the Stock Cam plate, After market cam but stock plate. i found 4 shorter ones so im guessing that all 4 go to the plate.. im tempted to just take them the box they gave me and say have at it!

it doesnt have to do with aftermarket. If you ordered a new one from GM to replace your old plate you will need to order the new counter sunk bolts. If you are re-using the plate that is in the engine now they will be standard head bolts.
