if you had it planed at a machine shop they should have checked it for cracks.

you did use new gasket?.........soryy had to ask ive seen old gaskets re-used with little success.

have you ran a search?.......it seems like ive read similar posts that have something to do with the water jackets being thin around the exhaust area.....but i have crs disease today----if you ask the wife i have craft disease.
