It's a bit too cold and nasty here for me to get back to the car, but I noticed one odd thing I didn't notice before.

After putting in the new head gasket and torquing the bolts down, the head appears to be approx 1/16" to 1/32" shifted to the passenger side of the motor. I'm not clear how that would be causing my problem, but it's a bit weird.
