mork Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Is it possiblet o re-use ARP head bolts? Their website suggests you can, provided they were torqued up correctly when installed. But does anyone have any direct experience with re-using them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H_D Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 You need to check them with a stretch gauge to see if they are still within tolerance to be re-used Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletezy Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 You can yes just need to check them for expansion Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mork Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Been in contact with ARP today. Unlike stock head bolts, theirs are not torque to yield, so do not stretch. Therefore, provided you use the ultra-torque lubricant, they are just tightened in 3 stages up to 60ft lbs (approx. 81Nm). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
