Just doit, it can't hurt anything. And they're like 50 bucks with the result of a slightly better flowing head.

Started the car up yesterday. I have an exhaust leak, I think the front main is leaking, on first startup, an oil line going to be filter relocator blew off thus spraying a gallon of oil everywhere, and my vac started strong at 21 hg then dropped to 15. Something is wrong again.

Was this an engine rebuild or just a swap?
