#817, "Need to ReTorque Head 500 miles after head gasket replacement?"




          

Hey guys, I need some opinions. Do I need to have the head retorqued after replacing the head gasket? I had the head ported and milled to 10.6:1 compression, and have driven over 500 miles with the stock MLS head gasket. Someone mentioned that it should be retorqued after driving a while? Is that necessary, because its a lot more labor since the cams have to be removed to retorque the head. Thanks.
