Subject: [alfa] Reusing head gaskets
I'm curious as to why a head gasket can't be reused that has been removed
from an engine that hasn't been run. I'm told that it is iffy, but if it
is reused to torque it down several more ft.pds. Sure, there's some
crush, especially the metal rings around the cylinders but it's going
right back on (obviously) in the exact same position.
In this case it is for a 750 block and I'd really rather not torque it
any more than necessary.
