Did you ever find a answer to this question? Did you re-use your head bolts? I need to know the same thing.

Never reuse your head bolts...they are torqued to yield which means they have been stretched from initial build. ALWAYS install new head bolts.

There is no reason to come that far only to re-use old head bolts. Go with new. You'll thank yourself later.
