Was it re-torqued 500 - 1000 miles after the head was redone?

Yup.  This is actually a pretty easy job on a Spica injected Alfa.  The key
is to undo the injector lines at the Spica pump and then remove the cylinder
head, intake manifold, and injector lines all together.

A real mechanic could probably do the entire job in less than a couple of
hours, it takes me a few.
