A-series head bolts are designed to be reused; they are not Torque-To-Yield (TTY) bolts.

Maintenance Schedule

Retighten cylinder head bolts every 24 months or 24000 miles whichever comes first, per the Periodical Maintenance and Lubrication Schedule.

1972 USA Owners manual (Page 32 ... 32):

Overview

BOLT-FIXING CYLINDER HEAD SHORT [9 needed, 97 mm length]
* M10 x 97mm
11056-18001 36 lb ft [Original use: A10 & A12]
11056-H1000 43 lb ft [original use: A12]
11056-H2301 58 lb ft [original use: A12GX]

Note 'T' bolt for center of early A12 engine. The center bolt is thinner to allow oil to flow around it up to the rocker shaft.

BOLT-CYLINDER HEAD, TO OIL GALLERY [1 needed]
11057-18000 '
11057-H1000 'T'
11057-H2300 '13' for 1967-1973 engines [97 mm length]
11057-H5700 '13' for 1974-up engines [111 mm length]

Bolts are the same for A10/A12/A14/A15, but:

  • A14/A15 require the stronger bolts (marked '13')
  • A14/A15 has one longer bolt (marked '13')

  • redesigned A12 use the longer bolt (marked '12T')

A14/A15 long center bolt

  • '12' bolts are the medium torque version, used on all A12 after about 1972. The 'T' center bolt matches, and is for the early A12. The longer 'T12' bolt is for the late A12 (mid-distributor version) and is the same length as the A14/A15 '13' center bolt
  • the '13' bolts were designed for the B110 GX, but used for A14 and A15 afterwards. The center bolt is apparently marked '13', short for early A12, and long A14/A15.

'12' bolts

Better to use the GX '13' center bolt, which is high-tensile chromoly V steel

"13" bolts were first used on the twin-carb A12GX Engine, as opposed to single-carb engine bolts. "13" bolts can be used with any early engine (they are simply stronger than the earliest bolts).

Note that A12/A12A/A13/A14/A15 all may use the '13' bolts, but the center bolt differs between early engines and late engines.

Center bolt 11057-H5000 and 11057-H5700 are interchangeable, but have different torque specs
