Listers,

I have a loose head bolt (stripped thread), it holds < 15ft-lbs.  It's on
the passenger side, adjacent to the timing chain.  Is there a good<->remote
chance of warping the head if I drive it like this?  Would it just blow the
head gasket first?  All the other bolts are fine.

Fairly worn L18 bottom end/fresh W53 head/270 degree duration, 0.472" lift
Cobra cam

I'm planning on pulling it to bits in ~ a fortnight since the rings are
buggered anyway (blows a big healthy cloud of white/blue smoke under
throttle :)

Cheers

- Tom
