head bolts and gasket

Postby crazyshad1 on Sun Sep 20, 2009 10:38 pm

I've just received my engine so i thought i'd whip the head off to see if it was as promised.
Can i reuse the standard head bolts and the st170 metal head gasket?

No, well in theory you can but it wont last long. The headbolts are strech bolts and as good practice never re-use old gaskets.
