mattysupra Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 had a quick search but cant find any direct answer. Are the standard head bolts stretch type? I.E do the head bolts need changing when you do a head gasket? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Manual says in head refurb section............outside diameter (of the threaded section) is 10.8-11.0mm as standard.............if less than 10.7mm replace the bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul mac Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Manual says in head refurb section............outside diameter (of the threaded section) is 10.8-11.0mm as standard.............if less than 10.7mm replace the bolt. as scooter says the manual gives tolerances, however when going to all this trouble i would use new ARP studs as a matter of course, they are relatively cheap and very easy to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
