Oh me,

  Looked at my original post re: retorquing the head bolts/nuts.  Didn't
really mean to crank it up and go drive it a coupla hundred miles but
that's what I wrote, alright. :-(  Here's my method:  Fire it up and run
it in at fast idle 'til the temp stabilizes, usually 1/2 hour or so. 
Shut it off, retorque the head fasteners tomorrow, cold. 

   Been doing it this way for years, YMMV.

  Sorry for the confusion,

  CR
