95 metro head bolts

Does anyone know if the head bolts on a 95 1.0L metro have to be replaced when doing a head gasket replacement?

Ehh...why not? If your gonna replace a main part like that you might as well go with the whole thing.

yes they are torque to set or something like that. When you have replaced the gasket you should always use new fasteners!

They're called "stretch to torque". When you take them off, toss them. Or, you'll either break one, or have a leaky head. Both of which REALLY suck. Go on Ebay, Partsdinosaur has them for like $11.
