Anything else I need to do when I'm a replacing head gasket? 200

You can not grind turbo valves. The turbo valves have a hardened
stelite(sp?) coating that is destroyed by grinding. You may be
able to replace the valve seats if there is wear but if the
valves don't clean up and look new just from cleaning (not grinding)
they should be replaced. Disposal of the valves is also exciting
since they've got liquid sodium in them....
