Re: OEM Head bolt/gasket strength discussion
I got my head bolts in the mail last night from headbolts.com, pretty quick I must say. Now though the real fun begins, now how do we find out the strength of these bolts?

The bolts I recieved are not from the same manufacturer claimed in the post I linked to, these head bolts are made by Corteco, part number 27138. I'm still at work and have not opened them, but when I get home tonight I will check them side by side with my OEM head bolts to see if the sizes are right and check for any markings on the bolts. A quick search of their website didn't find me anything on their strengh rating or what material they are made of, maybe someone else can find something?
