The head bolts will not have the same clamping capabilities, since they were stretched on the first installation. You may blow a head gasket due to the bolts losing torque.

If you break the head bolt can you reuse the head gasket?

If a head bolt is broken, it is generally not advisable to reuse the head gasket. The integrity of the gasket may have been compromised during the failure, leading to potential leaks or engine damage if reused. It's best to replace both the head bolt and the head gasket to ensure a proper seal and reliable engine performance.
