Resurfacing the head?
 
What do you guys think about resurfacing the head? I had my bottom end sleved and rebuilt. Should i get the head resurfaced befor i put it back together? I didnt have any problems with the head or the head gasket befor.

atleast go take it to a shop and have them shave it just a bit to make sure it is perfectly flat, if it is fucked up just a little bit your hg will blow super fast

have the block decked too

You didn't say it was a 94 H22 and that wouldn't matter anyways. You can deck any block.

I would get the head surfaced anyways, just to be safe. You have a nice clean surface on the block, why not make the head the same way? It would eliminate any possible problems with a blown head gasket, ar at least greatly reduce them.

still, the fact that the h22 is closed deck means nothing in this thread. As jigga mentioned, any block can be decked (meaning taking a little off the top)

if you spend all those $$$ to build a block, why halfass it because of 20 bucks.
