its worth having it checked and milled if it needs it - i'd rather pay some money and only have to do it once.

Thanks. Another question... what gaskets do you think i need to order, besides the head gasket? I only need the valve cover gasket (cause I am changing it anyway). But do i need to order any other gaskets?

i would get the topend gasket set and change them all while its apart.
about the time you dont the cam seals will start leaking & all that fun stuff.
remember do it right - do it once. half *** it your gonna have it apart every other day.
