5sfe Head Bolts - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #44075 3 posts Started by Bigmeanbulldog55
I'm putting a new head on my motor and I'm wondering if I should go with upgraded head bolts or not? Anyone have experiance with the putting stock grade back in? I'm not going FI, but I will beat the piss out of the motor. The stock bolts held till 150k, but that's without racing. So, if I need upgraded head bolts, were should I get them and what grade would be nessisary? Thanks guys.

from what im told by people on this site is that the stock head bolts from toyota or a local dealer are plenty strong enough for turbocharging . so im guessing stock head bolts would be fine no upgrades needed

the stock bolts are more than adequate for ANY "racing" you'll be doing in the celica in NA form.
