***Evo VIII head gasket***
Hey guys,
The head gasket in my evo 8 is starting to go. I have a garage that is going to replace the gasket for me.
Is there anything else you guys would recommend me doing while i am getting the head gasket replaced as well??
Cheers

The timing belt was done however the water pump was not changed nor the tensioners?
I think i won't upgrade the cams just yet, i was thinking to in the future though.

Get back in there and take care of the full timing belt service. Just not good thinking to only do the timing belt.
If cams are in your budget, now would be a good time to do this along with cam gears...
You and/or the shop are probably already doing this but don't forget about a new exhaust gasket and new intake gasket.

Waterpump because it is right there, and spend the couple bucks now while you won't have to pay for the labor rate down the road if it gives out.
