ARP Head Studs

The studs don't really tend to stretch or loosen up. Re-torquing is usually saved for when doing rings and giving the rings a chance to seat. When I did my studs I didn't re-torque them until recently and then I took the torque up to 140ft. lbs. Also, I hit 75psi boost within the first week of having them in.

i guess i'm just cautious; i wouldnt like to make a hobby out of replacing headgaskets so i think i'd do everything nice and gingerly; then put my foot through the floorboard

If I retorque them iguess I need to do them in the right order like the book says? I didn't do anything to the head. Used same head gasket that has only been on that engine for about 6,000 miles just took out one bolt at a time and retightened.
