you dont need to change the head bolts, they are not stretch bolts.

If they have been used in the past and some monkey has over tightened them beyond there yield, then the only safe way is to use new ones.

compared to £11 for DET bolts, it's a complete rip off


the reason I want new is because the bolts I took out are 22 years old and I don't trust them, I don't fancy re-sizing the threads in the block either, I've already got the crank in and prepped the bores. I might spec some 12.9 high tensile bolts myself, can't cost more than £15 like that I recon
