Morning,

I tried search and google but cannot find a definite answer.

I checked the haynes manual and it calls for change of the rod cap bolts but doesn't say anything about mains cap bolts so I checked the torque settings section to see if they are stretch bolts. It states no angle is to be applied after a torque setting.

Just want clarification that they can be re-used or a stretch setting so I can measure them.

Paddocks have to special order these - 3 days - would like to get this together today.

Many thanks
 
Head bolts can be reused up to 5 times, the numbers are in the manual, ive never fitted new head bolts and have done quite a few gaskets on 200 and 300.
