Did you change out the head gasket?
taddpole77:
I did. Went with cometic this time. I had them plane the head and cylinder again.
Foxx4Beaver:
Excellent!..there's several of us on here using Cometic...you should be all set.
When I do top end replacements/re-ring, I don't take the head off. It requires a bit more of a steady hand when droppin the cylinder back on, but it's easier than lappin the head/cylinder everytime.
