Hey, Spocko. I think you e-mailed me about the head gasket. I unfortunately couldn't reply to it before I had to leave, and it's sitting on my home computer, so I'll reply to it here.

I didn't use the r-ideal head gasket because of general bad things I've heard about it. Larry really doesn't like them and some of the reasons him and other people give for not using them is, added Stress on auto tensioner, and you'll need to get adjustable cam gears just to put your cams back to stock timing.
