Can you get stronger stretch bolts or perhaps just normal bolts that you do up to 5000 nm??

Possibly

. I just don't think that mine were done up to yield, I don't think that in the case of my engine with its near-flush liners that the clamping force is great enough. I'm moving house this weekend but maybe the weekend after I can get the cams out and go at it a bit.

Haven't had the blinkin chance yet! Too bleddy cold and snowy! Cars not to bad though, the odd bleed and it's fine. It'll be on life support until I replace it, basically.
