Koni Shock - Special Bolt Question

I'm fixing a few details on our 1966 Carryover. I learned SAI used some special bolts to attach the top of the front Koni shocks. I ordered these special bolts and when we went to change them out with the bolts already in place, realized immediately the new special bolts are fine thread vs, coarse thread on the car. 
    My question is, are the new bolts the wrong bolts? Or do I have the wrong upper mounting bracket?
     The bolts are the most expensive bolts I will ever buy at $120 for a set of four so would like to learn what I need?

The shock caps should have fine threads for 65-66.

Thanks Charles. I'll round up a '65-'66 set. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
