#4570, "RE: Please help...re-using head bolts" In response to In response to 1
I PREFER using NEW bolts but in my past experiences I have found this. USUALLY the Factory manual says use "NEW BOLTS". SO, if it says you can reuse the old bolts, I would reuse them if you HAVE TO. But the time and labor involved,in my opinion, would mean NEW BOLTS to me. GOOD LUCK
