Head gasket question
I am in the process of installing the heads onto the cylinders on my 76 930. I noticed that four of my new head gaskets are slightly bent, not out of round but if you lay them on a flat surface they are not level. l looked at them carefully and there are no creases or anything. Will they be ok to use as when I torque the heads they will flatten out anyway. I would hate to have to purchase a new set if I can use them.

Should be okay - they are going to be flattened when you tighten them...
