uprated headbolts
#8
I ended up torquing my head bolts down again after the head started blowing into the coolant , which calmed it down a lot - but it went again after a couple of thousand miles. I don't fancy having to go through this again with a new engine build.

Ratchet strap coud be the answer though!

Does anyone know how getting a place to make you a set of headbolts compares with cost of a set of arp + shims (approx £300)?
