yakhopper Posted March 3, 2011 Share #1 Posted March 3, 2011 I'm in the process of having the head reworked and believe I should replace the head bolts when I reassemble. I have a 71 240 whith a L24 and E31 head. I am having new valves, seats, guides, seals and springs installed so as to allow the use of unleaded without issue but am having questions about the head bolts. Since I can't find the factory originals - what mfgr should I trust? and is this absolutley necessary? Thanks for any info avail.

bobc Posted March 3, 2011 Share #3 Posted March 3, 2011 MSA has both turbo and non-turbo versions. If you're rebuilding stock, non-turbo should be fine. Yes, you should replace them. Very cheap insurance! Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/38768-head-bolts/#findComment-348062 Share on other sites More sharing options...
