i blew a headgasket, i dont wan't to use a torque to yield bolt...i found a set of silver seal grade 8 head bolts for my mustang at a good price should i use the grade 8 bolt for my application (see signature) which are reusable, right or should i use a stronger bolt?

Its claimed that ARP head bolts can be used up to 2-3 times but i am not so sure, to be absolutely sure on something can be reusable go studs way!

ARP head bolts claim to have 15% more strength than normal Grade 8 bolts
