Default Fast 90 Install

I'm in the middle of installing a Fast 90 intake on my 04 GTO, i have a question.

I bought the intake used and i dont have the intake valley button head bolts.
Someone told me that with my LS1 that i dont need them.

I had an issue with my intake not seating properly, i thought it had to do with the intake valley bolts but it turns out i had bend the coolant tube that runs from head to head because the manifold was sitting on it.

So my question is do i need those bolts?

I went everywhere today looking for them i couldnt find that type of bolt anywhere.

Yes, you need these. They are mandatory if you want your intake to seal properly. Most hardware stores have SS button heads.
