Re: >>Head gasket change, do I "have to" get the head shaved???<< 200 90

Wether you get the head shaved or not should be based on teh condition of teh head.

Disregard the head gasket if it doesn't look bad, because even a small passage broken in teh gasket that you can barely notice is not good.

Check for distortion, you probably don't want anything as high as 0.004 inches of distortion, and no warpage.
