Wasup, nick currently is in sarnia and not in OZ, as for the head, you have to change the gasket! Whenever you remove a carpart and there is a gasket inbetween the two parts, the gasket must be replaced, as they can only be used once. They create a seal,much like caulking for tiles. Kevin, if your head is currently apart, why don't you replace to a TRD head gasket while your at it? Just wait till you can get more money andthen replace it while you still have them apart, ratherthan having to buy two gaskets and then more time down the road to take the head off/on etc. As for doing the head, it shouldn't be much of a problem, as long as you go slow,and the torque specifications can be found in any Haynes or chilton 1985-1987 Toyota Corolla GT-S manual, found at any Canadian Tire or Toyota Parts counter.
If you are goin to work on the engine or even on an Æ86, I would strongly suggest a manual as they are very essential and useful.
