Brother Raccoons:

A quick, serious question, non-Alfa. I'm replacing the head gasket on my other car, a Mitsubishi Mirage, and I've forgotten the typical rules of thumb for retorquing. Should I retorque the head with the engine hot, or after it cools back down? I remember that on my GTV6, Fred D. recommended bringing the engine up to temp and then retorquing hot. What do you guys do?
