How Many Times Have You ...

Reused The Stock Headbolts ?

Ive Got Two Heads, Both Sets Of Bolts Have Been Reused Once ...

Think I Could Get Another Squeeze Out Of A Set ? Or Don't Risk It ?

And I'm Beyond Broke, Or I'd Go Buy New Ones

Just add the 5lbs torque to makeup for stretching and remember to chase the threads on the block
