What to replace when pulling a cylinder head?
 

Is there anything that needs to be replaced when pulling a cylinder head? I dont mean just because you have it off (i just replaced all the gaskets and seals not to long ago) I'm talking about something that if I dont replace it, something will mess up (btw I am replacing the head bolts with arp studs).

just the bolts and head gasket...everything else is optional

just head gasket and intake and exhaust valve oil seals.. assuming thats why ur replacing it anyways

i would reuse head bolts.. dip in oil. and torque to ft lbs and -40°, +40° x2 to each bolt. unless its a turbo application, in that case it is mandated.

This.



bigfishmoney, the seals were described as recently replaced in the OP. Plus your 'specifications' are gibberish.



My reading of the question is: "I am replacing my head bolts with ARP studs, do I need to change anything else?" and zero_gravity got it right. If you weren't replacing the bolts, but just felt like having a peek inside the engine for some reason, all you would need is a head gasket . . . Hyundai specifies the head bolts for unlimited reuse.
