Question for the hive. I am replacing the head gasket and there are 2 thin washers under 2 rear ish headnuts. One was under the second from rear on drivers side but don't know where the other should be. What is the reason for the thinner washers? Block deck is clean and flat. Head had 6 thou taken off for clean up and core plugs replaced with brass. Gasket was blown between 3 & 4.
Yours, in pieces, Fred.
