about your research thing. i have researched and ive seen people use the OEM gasket and have no problems as long as they stay under 10psi. i have HEARD others say not to do it to just get the metal one and deck the head and block.. but i dont want to sped money on the current motor in it.

yes i know the JDM motor will need a rebuild. it will get one along with a bunch of other parts. the JDM motor will receive a metal HG

now. i would like a certain answer on if its fine to pull the head. use ARP bolts and a stock OEM headgasket torqued to 75ft/lbs on a non decked head and block. the head will be checked for warpage and so will the block both will receive a good look over a few times.

i do have the right to be under the hood or whatever you say. im at a School Called Wyotech for training to be an auto technician and i know all the workings of the motor and other $hit attached to it. i just want a simple yes its alright to do this or no it isnt.
