Have you removed the head yet?

When the head gasket went on the V-8 in my old high-mileage Suburban (Its first life was a school bus) I found that all the bolts on the ends of the heads took almost no force to remove them.

You might measure the torque needed to loosen your head bolts - you might find a pattern that indicates a loss of torque.

How about checking the head bolts 6 months after you finish your work?
