You tightned head bolts to 110 lbs on a 1995 Ford 3.8 engine will this do any damage?

Tightening head bolts to 110 lbs on a 1995 Ford 3.8 engine could potentially cause damage, as the factory specification for head bolt torque on this engine is typically lower, around 70-90 lbs. Over-torquing can lead to warped cylinder heads, damaged gaskets, or even broken bolts. It's crucial to adhere to the manufacturer's torque specifications to ensure proper engine performance and longevity. If you've already tightened them to that level, it may be advisable to check for any signs of damage or leaks.
