V6 Stat

Do you need to replace the stat housing bolts, when replacing the stat?

I understand there was a change to the V6 stat housing at some point, resulting in longer bolts.  :-/

Later stat housing has a thicker flange so longer bolts are needed.

So you were given the old style one. Old stock?

Did the stat come with bolts / flange? Can i just replace the stat and use the current bolts?
