That was a good article. So, Hopefully, the parts will arrive tomorrow and we will be putting it back together. What torque should I use for the crank? I am using 120 ft lbs for the head gasket.

Hey guys thanks for the kind words. Will hear is a good one. Was doing some cleaning up around the block this evening when I noticed something strange inside. It the front port for the lifter there was a nail, yes a nail. It even has primer on it from when the engine was sprayed.
you can see the nail in the bottom right corner.

Ok it is a cracked sleeve! Got it removed and got a new one ordered. It is cracked right around the sleeve behind one of the o rings.
You can see the water beading out of the crack.
You can see some damage on the piston. I got a replacement coming as well.
Hopefully, this is it!

Hey, I don't got that port you speak of. I just took the base plate off this evening and the water is dripping down from the “front” cylinder. I can't see much moe then that right now. I guess I have a crack in the sleeve or the o ring is shot. I will find out more tomorrow I hope.

Before I changed the cylinder head gasket the first time, we had some oil in the rad. Not this time though.
