I have NEVER had a h/gasket failure on any boosted or N/A tu engine EVER that i have built.
engines overheated + destroyed in all manner of ways ,but none that were primarly due to h/gasket failure
so why would I consider spending lots more money to fix something that is not broken and not a problem
No John, why would i be thinking that? but ppl do get issues with engines even built by specialists!!

And more the point of re use.... Ppl change specs and parts as time goes by, so head off jobs are not uncommon even with feww miles on the egine
