i will be changing to my new head next week and am wanting to know if there is anything special to know, i will also be replacing the front chains so the front end will be coming off too.
i know about lining up the cams and about all the TDC shit.
1. but what i do want to know is what type of head do the head bolts have {hex/12point} ect.
2. are the bolts re-useable
3. whats the stretch limit
and lastly does anyone in brissy want an 18RG VRS set cause i can get them cheap and we can do a group buy and get them cheaper again.

Basically it goes like this.
Looka at the way it was put together oroginally, then put it back that way with the new head.
We reused all our bolts with no probs, just lube 'em up and chuck 'em back in.
As for stretch limit, I don't know anything about that. Nothing about that is in the manual.
