Use the GSR (or LS) rod bolts... they're longer.

I do not recommend using b16 head bolts because they are about 6mm shorter. And from talking to others that have used them, sometimes when they go to torque the head bolts down it pulls the threads out of the block. So I always use ARP GSR head bolts. Or new GSR head bolts.
