stock head bolts your suppose to use the angle wrench, I wish I would have spent the money for ARP head bolts, the head bolts where a 2 man job cause of that angle wrench, One torquing and the other one watching the gauge.

So you made a thread that was nothing but a link to a thread that is a link to another thread? Why didn't you just link the right thread from this one?
