Ricky, I'd use ARP head studs while you're at it, instead of head bolts. Bob

Yes I would sell the bolts. Whenever installing heads when using forced induction, I would have head studs. The head studs help to keep the head gaskets sealed better than head bolts do. The studs also eliminate the possibility of pulling threads out of the block when installing the heads. Bob
