Head bolt question
Hey I am putting a set of 416 heads on my L98 engine. I can just use whatever bolts are recommended for the L98?
I was looking at these GM performance head bolts, are they any good? Another thing, it says it is a "set" does that mean it has bolts for both heads or just one?

Re: Head bolt question
That is a full set of bolts but make sure to put sealant on the bolts that will hit the coolant jackets. The stuff on the threads from the manufacturer doesn't always seal properly and there is nothing worse than coolant leaking up through the bolts. Any non hardening thick thread sealant normally works well
