Default head lifting underboost, question about putting headstuds on one at time

My tuner said it was an old dsm trick. Since I have a d series i can get the the headbolts easy. Can I just install the arp each one at a time? I want to have them in before friday and dont really have time to take the whole head off.

Tried it, it worked! Thing is crazy now. I didnt know lifting the head would lose power but it did. Im getting 10lbs instead of the 9 I use to get. Spools faster also. Now I just need to change the timing and find out WHY it lifted.

Going to the local 1/8 mile Friday, wish me luck

Thanks Earl for the response.
