Help in finding after market 10mm head bolts

Just about to change the head gasket on my 440. I am having a hard time finding a supplier of aftermarket 10 mm head studs. It already has helicoils in it. The stock studs are stretched and I am looking for some that don't have the tapered down shaft like the stock ones. I know GT thunder sells 12mm ones but I can't use them because of the helicoils. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Pull the helicoils and install inserts we made some with 1/2nc bolts and drilled and tapped to fit the original studs!
