Finally got the engine back in the yellow brick, but realized[too late] that the head gasket set was for a carb engine instead of a fuelly. What repercussions will this have since my engine is close to 0 decked. Is .8 enough clearance? Are there any other differences in the head gaskets that would convince me to pull the head back off.[engine is now back in the car] Thanks for your input.
