Amici,

 A fellow FOT'r whose computer broke asked me to post
this question.
 What is an acceptable liner height setting for steel shim
head gasket on 4cyl TR engine? Seems the one he's
building has a variation of approx 2 thous from right
side to left of block on the 3 and 4 cylinders.Right
side is 3 thous, left slightly more than 5. After first
try assembly and startup it leaked even after retorque.
 The block seems to be the culprit as a low spot
seems to reside next to the liners. He's now trying
a copper sandwich style to see if he can make a
race this weekend but looking for feedback on what
anyone else has been able to get to work.

Thanks,
Bill D
