im rebuilding my 5.0 completely stock besides .030 bore can i reuse the head bolts or should i get new ones? I have heard both yes and no just seein what yall think

[stlcap5]

I would recommend getting new ones honestly

[Bevolution]

For how old they probably are, for how important they are, and how cheap they are, I'd get new ones. IMO

ARP from summit-39.95. Not worth the risk.

nah someone just posted that they blew their new motor reusing head bolts...wanna roll those dice? I didn't think so

[Free50]

I will never reuse head bolts. They are WAY too cheap and replacing the head gaskets is way too big of a job if they fail. Saving $40 or so is just not worth it. Just like any time I change a water pump I change the timing set whether it needs it or not. Just too much work to repeat for saving just a few $$$.
