Review on Fel Pro Es72220 Head Bolt Set by Joshua Albright

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Don't buy it, it's garbage!

These bolts are junk, they don't tighten evenly. I had to disassemble the engine again because the head gaskets leaked once my engine was up to operating temperature. I have been building engines for 35 years and have never had a cap bolt fail, but have never used a Fel-Pro cap bolt before. When disassembling the engine, I checked each bolt with my torque wrench and found that they all have different torque ratings. Save a lot of time and money and buy OEM or ARP screws. What an inconvenience to do the job twice. Thanks Fel-Pro, I will not be using your pads again.

Pros
  • Avoid the risk of reusing TTY (force to yield strength) cap screws.
Cons
  • Expensive.
