you don't have to have the head checked but its recommended. the head bolts are supposed to be torqued in counterclockwise order from the inside bolts to the outside bolts. torque them in order in three stages to 18 ft/lbs then to 27 ft/lbs then an additional 120 degrees except the front right stud which you torque to 90 degrees
