Retorqueing Heads Necessary

I just finished installing the new heads with Impy head gaskets and ARP head bolts. Do I need to retorque now that it's been through some heat cycles? The thought of pulling the headers off to retorque head bolts makes me want to puke!

Thanks
Steve

I think you definately need to torque the head bolts, if you don't you might get a head gasket leak soon or something worse. I can give you the torque specs if you need them.
