Headgasket and pistons.

Trying to bump up my compression in my b18c1. 1. How much would it usually cost to install pistons. 2. If i buy a Spoon headgasket and torque it down, can i reuse it if i take it off again?

Rainforest you can pull his motor and install pistons and put it back together for 75 bucks? That's an impressive sub 2 hour job @ the going rate of $45/hr.
