993 head studs loose after rebuild?

Hi There

I did a top end rebuild on my 993. The engine was oil tight at first, but after a very few miles is now weeping oil heavily from the cylinder bases. I was very careful torquing the heads, but is it likely/possible that they need torquing again? I did not replace the studs. Also can the heads be re-torqued with the engine in the car?

I used a Wrightwood racing gasket set and a smear of hylomar blue.

Thanks in advance for any opinions.
