Default LS1 deck dowel pins in houston/sugar land

Wanted to install my heads this weekend; just noticed the block decks don't have the dowel pins. Do I just get these at the stealership??

GM dealers should have them. Possibly O'reillys.

Thx for the response. Called Allen Samuels Chevrolet, they said it'd take a week to get em. I might just get em from TSP then.

You can probably take a dowel pin from a different motor and grind it to fit. They are just guides to get everything lined up. They don't need to be perfect. Just another option if you don't want to wait on shipping.

Found them at David Taylor Cadillac on 59.

Hopefully the weather stays like it is for a while.
