Hi Tom,

I would think that as long as the gaskets were ok you could reuse them...in
fact, likely better because the gaskets would already be compressed.

If you do pull the cylinders I woulod have a good look at the little o
rings that go on the cylinder studs but I would likely replace them
anyways. They seem to get ruined as you pull the heads and cylinders.

Regards...Ian

have a look-see at the cylinders and valves.

Would I "have to" replace the base gaskets on up, or just replace the
head gaskets???

I have a new gasket set, but was hoping to get by on the cheap.

Thanks!
