Subject: Re: Head bolt final outcomeI think they just feel they are not a product that perhaps has as much quality control as it needs.
Regarding 'hylmar', is that a real product? So no I didn't use that. Actually I use nothing on the composite but will use either the copper coat or maybe the Mopar stuff IF I run across it.

I'll be looking for these soon as well and I'm NOT paying 800-1200 for
