My project's '54 235 came with intake and exhaust manifolds bolted to it that were cast in 1940 for a 216.

I have located a pair of correct part number manifolds to fit to the 235, but I am wondering if I need different clamps for the 235 set up vs the 216.

Also, I think I might have read somewhere that one should use new bolts - or was that for head bolts?

If I need to purchase different bolts than came with the project's motor, what material should they be made from?

I know that this question may be very basic, but I have made enough wrong turns to decide that I should ask questions rather than guess.
