"stretch bolts"? (Cylinder head)
I'm considering taking the head off our '99 Cavalier 2.2L. A couple of
parts stores have said that the head bolts are one-time-use "stretch bolts", and need to be replaced. The (GM) service manual doesn't say anything about this. I would appreciate any clarification. Thanks, George
