looks to be the head he is talking about.
you loosen the bolts a bit so you can assure a flush set onto the block.

I am asking about the head bolts. in the chilton manual (what i copied and pasted) it says I have to loosen the bolts 2 to 3 turns before I complete the torque-ing. I wanted to know if this is safe to do and if it is necessary.
