Here's what's more important (in no special order): 1. that the cylinder head was checked for straightness, or re-milled 2. that the head gasket was the preferred Mazda or Fel-Pro 3. that the bolts will be re-checked/re-torqued in 500-600 miles 4. that the reason for the head gasket failure has been figured out, and fixed 5. that the oil gets changed within a few hundred miles 6. that ALL the air gets purged out of the cooling system (challenging on these trucks) |
I didnt get the head milled only because of urgency....me daily driver was down and i needed the mazda immediatly. Now that im getting my tranny back for the GMc....ill take the head back off and redo.
