Hey i was wondering do you have to re torque ARP head studs after a certain amount of time cuz people told me different things like retorque after 10k, after initial warm up, and such. also i heard they back out. I've installed a set of arp's when i changed my head gasket and torqued them down to 80 ft. lbs. So should i worry about them backing out on me cuz i haven't retorque them and it's been like 7k since I installed them thanks for the input
