Head bolts, 2nd stage
1.8T ~ what's the correct 2nd-stage tightening angle, 135 or 180??
I'm using new bolts (DMGRS "Comprehensive Kit"), uprated oil rail, Payen elastomeric gasket. impvan |

No, nothing marked on the bolts.
180 it is then, subject to having enough mozzy spray to keep the midges off for the next hour... |

Yes Gary they do but Mat supplies standard head bolts with that kit and a Payen gasket I believe he did with mine and the bolts are made by BGA

It would make a certain sense if all HG kits included the tightening regime for the bolts that are supplied with it. But maybe that's asking too much.
