Oooooops 120-130

Just the bolt holes huh. Here's the thing i've kinda neglected to add. I placed the head on the block without the head gasket. I'm using the special elring one (93mm bore) because I have b21 pistons installed. The gasket is pretty thick. About .047 when compressed so i'm sure with it on, there shouldn't be any interference with the water pump. I just wanna be absolutely sure before I torque it down and realize that it's still not level. Here's some photos showing the water pump sticking above the deck surface.

I guess I'll just concentrate my efforts on the bolt holes like you said. Thanks for all the help gents
