Greetings all - I have about 500 miles on a rebuilt TR4 engine and the thought has crossed my mind that I should do something to check or retorque the head bolts. Question is what is that "something" -- Just check the bolts to make sure they are at 90 lbs, or loosen everything and re tighten? Any advice is appreciated!
 
Loosen and retighten each nut in turn. And BTW, my factory TR4 manual says 100-105 ft lb (which means 102.5 with a wrench that is accurate to +/- 2.5 ft lb).
