I just got a heck of a deal on a non running GT6 that turned
out to have a blown head gasket. I am going to have everything
magna fluxed while it's apart, but I am pretty sure that the
gasket blew due to not being re-torqued after the head was off.
I have always re-torqued after a rebuild and have never failed
to find that it was needed.
