i know there are many opinions on this one..
i always anneal and copper coat used head gaskets before reuse.

is it necessary to anneal a new (virgin) gasket?

thanks once again, john

No, annealing is not necessary on new copper head gaskets.

THANKS GP!
er... you wouldn't my chance know the answer to my earlier question/post regarding the direction of a t100 primary chain tensioner?

I didn't see the other question, but check the shop manual and compare it to the parts book; always helps to have BOTH.
