head gasket quest. (searched but not there)

whats up all, my runner most likely has a bhg so i guess its gonna get replaced. i was just wondering if there was anything special to be done this time around to prevent it in the future.....

example:

bought a supra awhile back and it had a bhg. when engine got rebuilt i had them plane the head and block, put in a 3-layer metal head gasket from hks and ARP headbolts. then instead of torqueing the head down to the factory 55 ft-lbs i had them go to 75 ft-lbs

so basically it is a BULLETPROOF head gasket now.

thanks all for your help
