Re: Valve seals
If you're going to use the thin steel gaskets, make absolutely certain that the block is flat. Get a known good straightedge and check it all with a feeler gauge on each bank. Every single bit of crud on the deck has to be gone. Otherwise, you may develop a leak- coolant or compression, depending. The heads are new, so ostensibly flat, but I'd check them as well.
