why? Those are not torque to yield bolts, and can be reused without issue

TTY bolts are the ones that say to torque to *ft lb then torque again to ** ft lb then add 1/4 turn... the 91 and older 3.9 takes the same head bolts that small block mopar V-8 engines have, all the way back into the 1960s

the * and ** are not site edits for bad language, I just put that symbol there because the actual spec varies for different engines
