Valve cover bolts
So I got a set of factory torx valve cover bolts from another member on the board...
However, when I went to install them, they bottomed out with a good amount of space left between the head and the valve cover. When I compared them to the the ARP bolts that were in there, I noticed that the factory ones are a smidge longer. These aren't factory heads, they are Sportsman IIs.
Any ideas?

I'm using Felpro gaskets with a bit of RTV.
