Not reusable.
get new bolts and you might as well get head gaskets.
what made you pull the heads?
i wanted to inspect everything before i through it in the truck and wasnt sure if i needed to pull the lifters when i installed the cam?
nope.. have plastic lifter retainers :)
if its on a stand just flip it over and spin the cam before pulling it out and if not get some 5/16 dowel rods to hold the lifters up..but since u have the heads off its pretty easy to just pull the lifters outQuote:
