Am in the process of head gasket job over the next week or so, and thought I had all my parts lined up. Ordered "oem" head bolts from FCP Groton, and they arrived Friday. In a Scan-Tech box. Hmm.

Ten of these bolts from the dealer will be over $100, but that's worth it to me if they are superior quality and will provide better clamping and will be less apt to break.

Have not measured my old ones to see if they're stretched too much to reuse, but it may come to that.

Anyone had experience with the Scan-Tech head bolts, positive or negative?

thanks,
john
