242glt going back together/head bolts 200 83

posted by  someone claiming to be RR on  Wed Feb 28 01:37 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hi guys,

Got my head back Monday and head gasket set.Dumb question...

Do I absolutely need new head bolts?

Last time Ill ask this question...If you were a novice brickhead and ready to kick your golf game back in,and just tired of working on restoring a rustfree 242t,would you go to the trouble of intercooling an auto car as well as a b230 intake swap?

The resources available to even a novice make these mods a distinct possibility,and I have most if not all of the parts.But at the risk of sounding like a weenie,Im thinking that I should put the car back together as original,no inter or intake yet,and just see how the car was supposed to run and check all the other systems,ie tranny and such,before I modify It.Seems logical to me.

Anyone Else?

Thanks for replying and for all the help.

RR
