He said they wont tighten so how could he tighten them?? think..... bolts only can go in straight unless u cross thread them and this doesnt happen with threading them on by hand it happens with either using air or by using a socket and getting it in straight....... if u tightned them by hand then you proble have the wrong bolts. take them out and look for metal on the bolt or in the whole if u stripped the block your sol my friend...... come talk to me i have some d16y8 headbolts 4 sale ill set u straight
