Just finishing of the strip-down and clean of the v8 ready to rebuild it over the next few days. Just one question on the cylinder head bolts.... I've got the heads with 10 bolts and am wondering whats the rule with reusing the bolts?? Can they be reused or should I be getting new ones????

TIA

Always new bolts on an unknown engine.

You must have it up and running by now?
 
Only doing a top end rebuild, Cam, followers, rockers, push rods, timing chain & gaskets. Only took the heads off to replace 2 leaking core plugs which sods law would be the ones at the rear :rolleyes:
