HI there,

This is a hard question to answer, as you never know how much damage there has been done to the head, it is never a case of replace the gasket and all is well, heads can warp, twist, crack, they may need corrosion ground out and re welded. so it is a must to remove first and see what has to be done to make the repair sound.
