It would be good if you can find your leak down tester. The compression happens so fast when you crank your engine over that it is hard to tell if the gasket is starting to leak. If the gasket is bad and you put the cyl at TDC and add air pressure, you will hear the air leak into the neighboring cyl. Of course you will also hear if your valves and rings are leaking.
