If you wanted to play it safe just get the head milled and throw on a new gasket and ARP's.
How long did it sit with BHG?

Oh I promise you they were that loose. I wish I woulda thought about getting my TQ wrench out and seeing what they were. Where the turbo mounts to the manifold were twice as tight as the head bolt. I hate to have it milled down again if its already been done. The cams and all are still silver so its obvious it was cleaned and checked. I guess im going to check everything with a straight edge then clean the block and head real good and like you said give it another shot.
The car sat for almost a year with the BHG. Not moved, not started until last saturday.
