bigport 4ages are not torque to yield, smallports are.

i do headgaskets at work on average probably once or twice a week, i only replace headbolts if they are torque to yield, unless the customer wants new ones or unless its a falcon.
i personally hate torque to yield bolts, cause even with new bolts, a VERY clean thread and a lightly greased bolt, when your doing the final 90 degree turn they dont all feel even which disturbs me a little and i hate the feeling they give, like they are about to break Confused

on my own personal engine id get new bolts, but i definately wouldnt spend $300 on ARP bolts.

also VRS stands for valve regrind set, not value regrind Wink
