Headstand Tightening Question?

I am going to do a valve adjustment and was wondering if it is advisable to re-torque head studs whilst covers are off or is this tempting fate with the possibility of breaking them?

Thank you

The average answer is there is no need.

Is there are reason for your wanting to re-torque them?

Did you have a recent re-build or verified leak at the heads to the block?

If not, do not test fate.
