I will be replacing the head gasket on my 1993 Civic CX. I am aware that you should have the head inspected and resurfaced but I can't find a local shop that will resurface a head. No only this, but I am planning on putting a vtec 16 valve head on this car next summer. I believe that the head is warped because the man I bought the car from said that the head gasket had been replaced but my car is now spewing white smoke when I rev it (though car fax does not show record of the HG had been replaced, after I bought the car the PO stopped replying to my questions too ) and there seems to gunk on the outside of the engine directly under the head. This car is not a daily and should only have about a hundred more miles on the car in a year (track car). I was thinking that I could just spray the new head gasket with copper spray to make it hold for a while.
Edit: I'm going to head by an auto parts store and ask them if they know where I can have my head resurfaced.
