Torque to yield/single use only LE5 IM bolts

If memory serves me right, the LE5 intake manifold bolts are torque to yield, single use only, and special order from dealer only.

Am I right or wrong? I'm going from SC to stock and need to know before I start ripping stuff off.

There is no way you can put enough torque into those bolts to yield them, they are squeezing the rubber intake manifold gasket. I'm pretty sure the torque spec is 10lb-ft. You would be fine to re-use them
