I've read where it's a good idea to remove the head gaskets and re-assemble without them. Something about, they crush and cause an issue. Is there anything else you need to do or change, in their place? Like a different head design?
Thanks |

Possible/probable the folks at Porsche never had a TSB eliminating the head gasket, but I am running with my own experience and that of Jake.
For any /4 I may/will build in the future I am not using a head gasket, but will make sure things at the cylinder/head connection is tight. |
