From my experience once the head gaskets goes on them the head has warped, twice on two different engines several years ago they were fixed properly, skimmed head etc etc and put back together properly and guess what they both eventually blew the head gasket again and the heads were warped again!!. all I can assume is once the head warps they carry on warping...So if your going to fix it I would use another head.

You could just put a gasket on it and sell it but that's being a bastard in my book!!LOL
