1994 Protege, old cylinder head bolts = approx 106mm long.
Purchased a replacement set from Rock Auto:
Fel Pro ES72846, they measure 120mm, so I sent 'em back.
Purchased another replacement set:
Mahle GS33556, they cross reference ES72846 on the package, and... they're also 120mm long.
I could fabricate 14mm spacers, but that's hokey. What's the story? My guess is some non-engineer consolidated part numbers, and the parts books have been incorrect ever since.
Anyone know a proper part number for the correct length bolt set?
Thanks!
