Default Honda fuses and more

Is it just me, or Can I not find the 50a style main fuses? I need all the fuses but either they are easily found, or no one ever needs them. Are they acquirable at the local autozone/advanced auto?

I also need where to find head intake/exhaust manifold studs. Seems the reman'd head I recieved didnt have any, they were closed Fri but I will be calling them and giving them a nice talking too, (the rocker arm cover was broken at the cam seal also)

I called Honda for rocker arm bushings for the intake, was told they are back ordered and don't believe they are being made anymore.
Does anyone know if re-shimming the rocker arms are overly important (cant see why not), and if so, why doesn't Honda wish to keep the parts?

its not just you... same thing for nissans. you can't find them. but you can modify the **** at autozone to work, or pocket them at a local junkyard.

idk what they charge for them at honda, but i'm sure its too much.

also, stop shorting **** out in the engine bay and you'll never have the problem again

match the metric thread pitch and use stainless stuff from any hardware store.
i'd estimate it to be like an m5X1.25 maybe? idk.. i sure can't remember right off the top of my head

I some how magically didn't check the fuses in the engine compartment before I bought the car. So they have been burnt out for months ( they ran copper wire underneath hidden from view but working all the same) But I did find 2 fuses at napa, (need 2 more) I am thinking I will just modify the FLB style Fuses to work from now on, autozone and advanced auto has plenty of them. The counter guy at advanced auto told me just to replace all my 30,40,50 with 80 amp fuses, I left.

Rocker arm bushings, they are the spacers under the intake rocker arm, there are like 5 sizes, ABCDEF, the letters stamped into the head, corilates what bushings to use. Like my old head was a CDEEB new one was like a BDCEE or something. Since I cant get the shims they cant be THAT important lol.
