head gasket

I have a 2000 honda civic si b16a2, I have recently found out that my head gasket is bad, ordered a head gasket kit and I'm just wondering if I need to replace the head bolts when I do this as well?

Re: head gasket

if I need to replace the head bolts
No. Reuse unless damaged.



Send the head out to get checked for flatness, and corrected if necessary.
