those head bolts

Are you telling him to get those bolts? I'm confused....

Anyway, I'd get studs instead. Much easier to install a head on and they last longer b/c you aren't torquing the shaft, just the nut.

RE: Head bolt torque

Of course we do ART

nice spelling of my name btw. didn't get to start it yet. Everythings on & double checked, but i have to put oil in & change filter, then fill the transmission up with fluid hopefully i still have some left from when the aod was in it. Figured i'd wait till daylight for that so i can see if anything flies out of the car. Then timing it.
