What is the tensile strength of these head bolts?

These Edelbrock head bolts are rated at 170,000 p.s.i. This high tensile strength ensures they can withstand the significant pressures within the engine's combustion chambers.

Do I need to remove the valve train to install these bolts?

No, the reduced diameter bolt heads on this kit are specifically designed to eliminate the need for valve train removal. This makes re-torquing the cylinder heads a much simpler process.

What is the benefit of cold-forming and heat-treating the bolts?

Cold-forming ensures the molecular integrity of the bolt material, creating a stronger base. Heat-treating is done prior to thread rolling and machining to further enhance the bolt's durability and resistance to stress under engine operating conditions.

About this part

Product Details

These Edelbrock head bolts are cold-formed to ensure molecular integrity, a critical step for creating a strong, reliable seal between your cylinder head and engine block. This kit is specifically designed for 1987-2001 Jeep Cherokee models with the 4.0L Inline Six engine, and also fits other AMC/Jeep 4.2L engines from 1972-1990 when using Edelbrock cylinder heads. They are heat-treated before thread rolling and machining, which helps maintain their strength and durability under the high pressures found in an engine's combustion chamber.

What sets these bolts apart is their reduced diameter bolt heads. This thoughtful design means you won't have to remove the valve train to re-torque the cylinder heads, saving you time and effort during maintenance. The kit comes complete with hardened and parallel-ground washers, ensuring even pressure distribution when you tighten the bolts. Rated at 170,000 p.s.i., these bolts offer a solid foundation for your engine's top end.
