The headgasket on my 940 B230 is leaking so the head is coming off this weekend. I'm having a shop do the machining, valves, etc. I got a VRS kit from Volvo but I'm not sure what some of the seals are for. The shop should know I suppose (they do Volvo heads for a local indy but they don't specialise in them). I'd like to be educated before I take the head to the shop on Monday. If someone could check out these pics and tell me what each one is I would very much appreciate it.

Also, is it absolutely necessary to replace the head bolts? I don't know what their condition is yet. Just wanted to know whether it's okay to re-use them if they're in good condition. Car has 286K Kilometres on it.
Thanks in advance
Brad
