I am also not complaining that I have to do it again. I am honestly learning from it. It was a pain but its a learning process. Plus in the future if anyone needs help I can lend a hand you know.

While I agree that replacing a head gasket "can" be a few hour job; while you've got it apart, why not replace other stuff. Front case, oil pump gears, BSEK, timing belt, tensioner, ARP head studs etc.

Those few items will pretty much ensure that your car will run another 100k miles without much else (engine related) going wrong.

MORNING everyone! thank you for all the great advice.

I have changed the head gasket and she is officially running. I will say this. The previous owner did a lot of shady work just to get it running.

I will use this block till I buy another one and build it. Afterwards ill give this one away
