i would never re use headbolts but thats just me, a few guys do and dont have problems.

Yep I would not reuse them. They might be the cause of blowing the head gasket or the head is warped? Have you had the head checked to make sure its flat?

So that head was milled and the gasket blew again?

94 12valve 01-18-2011 02:21 PM

thats what it sounds like ... was the head torqued down right when the new gasket was installed?

idk it wasnt a diesel shop that did it and i plugged my wastegate an hour before it blew i may be tradin my 370's for a set of 5x14's and 100 boot
