Default Source for 4.2 main cap bearing studs/bolts?

I'm rebuilding my 2000 4.2, and nobody seems to have the main bearing cap bolts/studs in stock. Anyone know of a source for them?

Best bet is to ask local machine shops that do engine work.

Get a part number and you'll probably find a vendor on the internet.

The machine shop may be a solution. I just picked up my block, crank, etc. from the machine shop Friday.

Finding a part number has been tough. If anyone can help with that, I'd appreciate it.

I found F65Z6345BA, but I read that's specific to the 97, and the 00 may be different. The pictures I've seen of that part number show 8 identical bolts, while my engine uses two shorter bolts in the front cap.
