Dammit.......help!
Putting Ben's heads on. Passenger side on, gasket coated, go to put nuts on studs.....no washers. Used copper coat on the gasket.
The question is will the head gasket be OK and seal if it doesn't get torqued until tomorrow when I get washers in hand?

Thanx for the input fellas. If it needed a new head gasket, I'd much rather buy and have Sean install it now, rather than after the car is all back together, but if its going to be good, then it would be nice not to have to buy another one.
