Re: Cometic Head Gasket Re-use?

He is talking about a MLS gasket. Unless there was trauma to the engine, it should be safe to reuse. A stock head gasket, no way. I wouldn't even reuse it if the engine went right away. Once the head gets torqued, it is done. A cometic HP you are looking at $115 to get it to your door.

I would reuse a MLS gasket way before a copper one. Copper is maleable, it moves and doesn't go back. Stainless will always move back some, so it should reseal fine.
