Replace head bolts??
I am getting ready to rebuild my 1969 429 and want to know if I should replace my head bolts. As far as I know they are the originals. They look good, but I know some people recomend replacing them. From Summit a new head bolt set is about $170 and I don't want to pay that much if it isn't really needed. However, don't want to rebuild again in a few months with a blown head gasket.
