Oh GOD! I think I know what happened!! 900 1995

There is supposed to be TWO indexing sleeves on the block to pin the gasket in place.

(So help me, I woke up from a dead sleep right now, I dreamed this)

When it came back from the machine shop, I had a bag of old stem seals and this round steel thing. I thought it was junk. It must have stuck to the head when I pulled it!

I placed the head gasket on one pin only and it skewed to the side when I torqued the head!

Good Night.

Off to the shed in the rain to see if I still have it.
