Default Re: Head Torque spec's Help

That sounds correct, they are a torque to yield bolt. Once done the final two passes with a torque angle gauge they will be ok. A torque to yield is much more accurate than simply torquing to a specific ft lb number. You should also replace all the head bolts, normally a one time use. When they are torqued the bolts actually stretch to achieve the max clamp load they are designed for
