Yeah, unless you bought ARP bolts or studs they'll have to be replaced. The stock type bolts stretch to achieve the proper final torque, so they're trash after one use. You may get away with it; but I would'nt want to chance it. I also wouldn't want to try and reuse the head gaskets. They may seal or they may not. I'd just get new ones and go at it! Good luck!

Yeah I agree. You'd be pissed if you blew the head gasket a week later if you tried to reuse it. Like he said stock head bolts are trash after one use.
