As above really, mines 20yrs old now but the engine may as well be factory fresh so it depends entirely on the car you buy mainly, also your level of expertise/knowledge (easily researched now youre here) whether it's a viable proposition.
I'd say go for it, buy the right example & you can't go wrong especially if it has a recent hg by someone who knows the score re torquing.

P.S i.m.o higher head torque is better within reason & thats why i went to 90 on stock bolts.
P.P.S. Arrgh i hate replying on a mobile, cant see wtf ive written so far!
