just read a thread on retorquing....if I use the same ARP headstuds that are in my car now will I still have to retorque them if they've already "stretched?"

and do we suggest having the head milled, valve job etc. since it wasn't originally a BHG?

Ok...I'm going to start taking this head off...I'm nervous as shit...not asking for a writeup or anything but does anybody have any random advice that they've figured out while pulling their heads....ie heating up manifold bolts...etc.
