@@MowerMike Thank you kindly for the reply!

Loving your vids brother, thought I was subscribed but I am now. This is only my 2nd small engine head gasket replacement and first Briggs. The Kohler I did came with new head bolts but the Briggs kit does not. It appears you're reusing the original head bolts, I'm assuming that's okay to do on these? Please excuse my ignorance and thank you for your knowledge !!

I always have reused head bolts on these motors without any issues.
