| Re: Head, Con Rod & Mains bolts Hi I replaced all the above mentioned bolts. It is a small cost in the whole of cost of the rebuild, but can possibly save a costly re rebuild in the bottom end. Colin

| Re: Head, Con Rod & Mains bolts Definately agree with Colin, What is the cost of new bolts etc. compared with the hastle & frustration of a breakdown and having your car off the road!
