I recently purchashed an 8n that had leak around one of the center head gasket bolts, I cleaned the head and replaced the head gasket. It still leaks around the same bolt. Am I missing something? The head was within .003.

Yup you missed it .. Pull the head bolt put some gasket sealing material on it to seal the threads and you will be OK.

What was leaking? Coolant or combustion gases. Did you check the flatness of the block deck?

If its coolant, you might be able to use a sealant on the head bolt thread. Combustion gases, I'd use something like an Indian Head gasket sealant. Hope this helps and good luck!
