Last weekend I attempted to install my head. I thought the most of my worries was making sure the rockers and other moving parts are good which I'm still not sure.
while installing the new head and torquing down the 12th bolt it snapped. I used antiseize on these bolts and it seemed like it was just spinning without getting harder to wrench.Just tonight I bought a new head gasket and bolts and cleaned out the bolt holes even more. On the 1st bolt at 110 it seemed like the same thing was happening. I untorqued it and tried torquing it back down. My dads friend insisted I use the oil I bought to install the rockers and on this forum I read a little bit of oil was okay.
Is the bolt I tried torquing still reusable?I torqued past110 twice. Any other ideas on what to do right now they all sitting at 45 ft pounds. did I also mess up thebsequence by going up and down with the ffirst bolt at 110. thanks y'all its been a battle my only experience is putting on a lift and swapping some cooling parts
