Default ARP headbolt retorquing

Did my HC install a couple weeks ago using ARP head bolts not studs and stock MLS gaskets....been reading some people say to retorque the bolts after a few starts....I never did that...dont have any coolant in the oil and doenst appear to have any leaks coolant level seems to be the same...should i pull the valve covers and retorque or just let it be since its been a couple weeks

Once you do the 3 step process and final pass, its done. Never had to re tq any motor with ARP head bolts.

Worse comes to worse, use their supplied lube for accurate tq spec reading.
