I have turned it by hand every now and then, but probably not as often as I should have.... Its got a solid roller cam (mild under 600 lift). I am worried that the springs might have gone bad, so I want to take em off to test them....but for doing that I need to take off the heads... I was wondering if I take off the heads to inspect,,,,will I be able to reuse those head gaskets??? The engine has never been fired, but the heads were torqued to spec.... I dont know if it makes any difference, but its got head studs.
