well i have been reading these threads off and on, and come up with the fact that i'd like to try it. especially after i just did a headgasket job (motor in car)
funny thing is now motor is out so i can clean up the engine bay a little

couple concerns

when you guys speak of this we are talking bout breaking them loose and tourquing back down right????

well are you pulling the bolts or studs right out and re-sealing them with sealer of choice?
i am worried that if i dont ,that the threads will not be sealed after the sealer has benn heated and dried...

also does undoing the head bolts make the head want to seperate from the gasket???


thanks

any insight on this would be appreciated
