We are building a basic 2056 with a mild cam, nothing fancy. Is there a source for the sealing nuts that tie the crankcase together?

Not to start an argument, but the original design relies on case sealant around the bolt holes where the case halves meet--no sealing nuts. Though plenty of people use sealant on the stock washers and nuts.

"Sorry Mam, just the facts", thanks Bob, a sealing nut should not be required here, I will probably use a bit of silicone under the bolt head and under the nut heads.
Information is always a good thing
