rb20 head studs and head gasket

[RBKIDD]

i found a wonderful surprise today i have no compression in cylinder #3.so i have to take the head off.i have arp head studs and a greddy multi layered head gasket.the car has burned a total of 4 gals of fuel so you know how long it has run for really not too long.so the question is can i use the arp studs and head gasket again silly ? Just figured id ask.also wut ft lbs does the head have to be torqued to i just dont remeber

Studs yes Gasket no. Unless you feel like taking a gamble and pulling the head again if it doesn't seal. I wouldn't.

Head stud torque here

Maybe call ARP to make sure it's the same for studs compared to stock bolts.You should probably do a leakdown test before you pull the head.

perhaps cams are keeping the valves open?i second the leakdown.

but i wouldnt have compression on only one cylinder?idk lol

[RBKIDD]

so in other words the cams are too big and arent closin the valves all the way
