Default head bolt question and problem help me out. please

I have a 93 honda del sol d16z6 sohc vtec and I am looking for new head bolts. autozone and some other auto part stores don't have them in stock and the dealership wants $158.02 for a set. That's crazy. Does anyone know where I can get a set of head bolts or can I reuse mine if I add some extra lbs of torque. please let me know.
