    Hi-

    Rebuilding a 1GR-FE and wanted to get folks opinion/experience with setting the cylinder studs to torque and if anyone had experience with a stud backing out slightly when set to torque? And would it be possible to loosen one stud and retorque without concern of warping or damaging the gasket in the process or possible down the road head gasket issues. It's on the passenger side bank on the far right corner where the oil/cam timing sensor is located.

    Thank you in advance for the ideas. I will get a picture up shortly.
