Default RE: Engine bolts & capheads.

I think your right stainless is the way to go. Will I get away with changing them out one by one though? That is, each one in turn around the primary etc.

Bill - your bike sure is looking great. What bars are those?

Citoriplus - LOL Tell me about it. Chrome is no good over here at all. not if you ride everyday anyway.

Rob.

when I installed my chrome engine kit, I bought a chrome hardware/bolt kit also. I already had the chrome lifter blocks, so I just replaced the bolts one at a time, torqued them to spec when I installed each and have had no problems. The gaskets won't shift if you do them one at a time, just tighten each before moveing to the next. I perfer the bolts to the caps.
