i did a search but only came up with torquing and not re-torquing

anyway, ARP headstuds and cometic mls headgasket - should i re-torque after 1000 miles? ARP's site makes it seem like you should re-torque, but cometic's site says no re-torque is necessary on their mls headgaskets. so which is it? lol, i guess it doesn't take all that long to pull the cams to retorque. i'm just curious if people have gotten by without re-torquing

that's what i've read a lot as well. but then cometic says no-retorque needed for their headgaskets - very confusing
