WELL i guess posting to ones self sucks but fel pro where the bolts came from says that the washers were changed later buy GM and that the new head bolt set without washers would be cool

Now if some one could tell me about sealing the bolts or using locktite .....sealing the bolts like in a V-8 head ????????????????
