Well that was interesting. JB weld is some pretty tuff stuff. Yeah it failed the head gasket test, but then again, who in their right mind uses JB weld or any glue as a head gasket.

Copper hoops and both deck and block surface wiped with silicone grease may have allowed movement and tolerate differing expansion rates.
I suspect copper o rings around bores only, with or without receiver grooves could seal quite well using "Right stuff" around water passages and along valley edge. Alternately steel rings in the top of bore directly to head deck and no gasket, seals combustion very well . Typically done with dry deck. That said, if not dry decked products such as "Right Stuff" would be quite capable of sealing the water passages and valley/deck edge.(It's flexible enough to not lose seal with expansion differences.) |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
