Will do, I plan on just throwing it back together hoping it's just my lower intake gasket. I'll let you guy's know

while you got it halfway apart and for the small cost of head gaskets why not just replace them now? If you plan to throw boost at it you'll be happy you replaced them with something more heavy duty. JMO

if you want to do it right, you are going to need to send your heads to a machine shop to be checked for straightness when/if you take them off
