Well, got the head back, no cracks, holds great pressure, it is not warped....SOOOOO he thinks that I might have a crack in the block because two of the cooper seals on the head gasket were bent. He told me to fill the block through the water jacket with boiling water and see if the level drops. It has dropped a little (less than a 1/4", more like an 1/8th) but im not sure if its equalizing out in the radiator and that is why its dropping. Anyone else know of a way to check for a crack other than looking and putting it all back together and see if it blows the gasket again? thanks guys, ~Anthony
