Yes, a warped cylinder head can often be repaired through a process called resurfacing, where a machine removes a thin layer of material from the head's surface to restore its flatness. However, the extent of the warp and any potential cracks may determine whether it can be repaired or needs replacement. It’s essential to have a qualified mechanic assess the damage to ensure a proper fix and maintain engine performance.

Would it be better to replace a head gasket or put in a recon engine on a y reg fiesta zetec?
Bit of a tricky one ... It all depends on the condition of the cylinder head. If the cylinder head is warped then replacing the head gasket won't solve your problem. A warped cylinder head can be skimmed (if not too badly warped). If the cylinder head is badly warped then it would be much easier to replace the head than fit another engine.
