Default reusing head bolts

This is an H22A4, they've seen about 20,000 miles NA and maybe 7,500 with 6psi of boost.

OK to re-use the honda head bolts?

ARP doesn't have any for the H22 yet, and I can't wait for them, so I'm debating re-using them vs. the $75 for new Honda ones. A small $$ amount, I know, but it all adds up... new gaskets, bolts, water pump, oil pump, seals.... you get the drift.

ARP does have head bolts for the H22A4. I just ordered mine from Summit. Call them. I think they are on back order though. I think they were $119

They're "back-ordered" at Summit because they don't exist. I talked to ARP directly, and they have not yet made a single H22A4 head bolt. They think it'll be two weeks or so.

Are Honda head bolts torque-to-yield?
