Default Not torque to yeild head bolts.

Does anyone know if there are Head bolts avaliable for the Au 6 cyl that are not torque to yeild. Am contemplating a boost increase, (after a neck to neck run against a Worked GTR this morning) but am concerned about the head lifting off the block.... Thanku in advance......

have you tried shooting an email or calling atomic engines??
they do full long motors for over 600kw so i don't see why they wont be able to help you

or just use ARP head studs

Hey Mik, They've sent me an E-mail, asking for the bolt dimentions, pitch etc,
Been on holidays this week, so Some time this week i'll pull a head bolt out of an old Au motor sitting around, and go from their. Will be upgrading the clutch soon, (fancy exedy clutch dosn't have enouph clamp force), so will take the oportunity to take care of the head bolts, at the same time.

off topic again but i think a lot of people would be really interested in a build thread if u started one Autubo6, lots of people on here are interested in boosting AU's and not many have turbo'ed....

anyhow good luck with the bolts, keep us up to date.
