When rebuilding the 4.0 I looke at the all-thread cylinder head bolts and sort of get queasy. I'm sure a Ford engineer somewhere penciled that all out and it's OK and the quick fix is new bolts. BUT . . .
I've read a description of how they are supposed to work and wonder how that squares with occassional retorqing the cylinder heads.
Has anyone put studs in the heads? Got a part number from a bolt house?
Got thoughts, feelings, emotional upheavals on the topic?
