Well I took the week off to re-connect with my daughter who returned from Rome.
Today I decided I would make an attempt to check and re-torque the head bolts.
Since my Gasket isn't in yet I figured WTH, it was a crap shoot but what's another 4 hours tearing it up
Sadly my efforts did not yield satisfaction and I will lift the head again
The only good thing is no machine work this go round just my time and back.
I'm at a loss other then to suspect the alignment dowels, even though we cut the OE down But thinking they may be the issue.
I plan to just use a set of the 1/2" I bought like I should have the first time
However I can also address the manifold paint again so what the hey
I'll Be Back!
