I need to change out one head bolt. The front arp head bolt is too tall to clear the header flange. The original bolts are half as tall. Can i change the one bolt and tork it without hurting anything Thanks all Bill

Keep the good bolt and relieve the header flange.
Mark the spot with a sharpie and grind away.
If not - changing one bolt is OK
