What is the torque setting for the head bolts when you put it back together?
Are you going to need a monster torque wrench?
My son was working on an F250 Diesel and they needed a wrench capable

IIRC, you torque to given value - not all the great, then turn the bolt 90
degrees, let it sit for 15 minutes, then turn it another 90 degrees. These
are strech bolts. You need to measure the shank of the old ones before
re-using them to see if they're in tolerance or not. I just bought new bolts
My experience is that acetone does not mix with Mobil 1 ATF - I just shake
it got get the globs as small as possible, then squirt on liberally. I only
mix what I need for the job at hand, and use it all.

I think it's 45 Nm first torque. 26! bolts total.

Now THAT works like a charm.
My experience with that is that you sort of mix what you need when you
need it as the acetone evaporates
Works out to be more expensive than PB, and likes to eat plastic from what
I've found.
