head gasket

I'm about to replace the headgaskets on my 84 turbo and whatever other seals come with the black dragon HG kit. Just wondering if there are any other things I'll need besides the kit and tools and any tips anyone has to make things easier I would apreciate it thx

if you're going to have the heads off, it's a pretty good idea to go ahead and do the timing belt while you're in there. it won't cost much more, or be any effort at all. then you're good for another 60k ? maybe the tensioner too, but i forget if the tensioner on the Z31 gets replaced or how it works. look into that. and while you're going that far, you can do the front oil seal. always nice to have done. and the cam oil seals. clean the tops of the pistons and stuff. you know.
