Chris:

Yeah, I screwed up on th years. I think this was my mistake and just his oversight; I had asked if it was the 1993 models and he inattentively affirmed it to me. It's likely he meant the 1992 since it was, in fact, a 700.

I need to circle by his garage tomorrow to ask a couple of questions about the fixes he did (he topped off my coolant and the guage went dead for a bit, I think due to too much fluid and excessive blow-out past my dying 75kpa cap), so I'll ask him for a bit more information to post on the problem then. He may actualluy still have that brick in his garage if he couldn't get the head reworked before Thanksgiving.

Either way it would appear there is something wierd about the late model head. I've also noticed a number of posts to the board ovr the last few months regarding blown head gaskets on late model bricks.
