Pull the head, take a pic of head gasket install, let's make sure head gaskets on rite. I only use oem head gaskets when using stock head, I've seen some pretty shitty n flimsy head gaskets out there. Pull the cylinders n studs then oil cylinder walls down real good. Take ascetone on a red scotchbrite pad and clean all the Black Death off of the mating surfaces. Post pic of clean surfaces. If fucked up find super flat surface (granite block) tape 100 grit paper to granite and work cylinder in a figure 8 pattern making sure you count your circles to repeat on other side . Finish up with 400 grit and use same process on head . Buy a mock up set of gaskets to measure squish . If squish is too tight adjust with thicker base gaskets.
