Retorquing the head stud nuts after some amount of engine use post-rebuild is good practice no matter what. !00 miles? 1,000 miles? A weekend at the track? Somewhere in there. Just in case.

Easy to do at your first oil change (unless you do one of those VW deals, where you do a bunch of oil changes before deciding to go the full interval) when you are also rechecking valve lash and have the covers off.
