I know on some engines its advisable to re-torque the head bolts after initial torqueing once the engine has been up to operating temps after replacing the head gasket, is this advisable with the 4efte?

Planning on running a decent amount of boost and worrying about the head lifting.

Thanks

They are stretch bolts and will go into yield if further tightened, no point mate

therse no harm in checking the torque settings after some miles have been put on it, but ive not seen anyone on the forum talk of doing this the fact you have to remove the cams to get to the last 2 head bolts maked it a pain in the arse too lol

have you ever reused the headbolts at any time? toyota state that they dont need to be renewen in the workshop manual

Yea, well thats why i asked! I know its the case with other engines and was going to re-torque mine anyway but as you said, its a pain in the ass having to remove the timing and cams again after youv just built it all! lol. Will probs do it for the piece of mind anyway!

On a standard engine they would prob be fine, on the ones we build its not worth the risk

wer can i get arp headbolts for the 4efte?

can't at the moment, you can get 4AGE and mod to suit though.

Please note you will need to re-tap your block and head to suit. The head must be machined to fit the studs.

stock headbolts are fine in most cases though
