question about arp bolts

Technically, stock head bolts are reuseable if you put them back into the bolt hole they came out of and ONLY if they are not streched.

So you could reuse ARP head bolts if you put them back into the hole they came out of. They are much more resistant to streching than stock bolts, but why risk it? With the really inexpensive cost of new ARP bolts (I bought mine for $99+ shipping) It would be foolish to reuse them.

I bet stock bolts from the dealer cost nearly as much.
