Use the dowel pins, get the head machined, or but the ones from Golden Eagle. They are important.

The dowel pins ARE the "alignment process"!!!! Without the pins you cannot properly align the head.

yes, would you put on your main caps or rod bolts without the dowel pins?? critical to perfect alignment.
