Y Block Head bolts

Are the head bolts installed with flat washers?

Don't believe they came from the factory with washers.

No the factory head bolts for a Y Block did not have washers....if you decide to go with ARP bolts instead of the conventional stock factory type THE ARP DO USE WASHERS...BE SURE TO read the instructions and put the correct side of said washers where they are supposed to go.....I cant remember what that is but the instructions will clarify how the washer is installed
