Yep, they will eat a head gskt between two cylinder . Not a big deal Allen pop the head off clean up the deck run a bottoming tap down eack head bolt hole clean out all grease and oil with brake clean or either blow dry clean and chase the threads on the headbolts look for any crosion on the stem and if they are bad replace the bad one . Mill the head and while ya have it off do the valves and giudes . It is best if ya hve the head Milled rather then ground as with most head grindes they have a tendecy to dish the center of the head a bit while a rotory broch will keep it flat. Try and get a victor head gskt. as i have had less problems with the victor verses the Fel Pro . Also while your at it have the ends of the rocker arms reground as this will give a better valve adjustment . Torque the head to the max . spec's , also i use white grease on the threads for lube not to much just a lite coating and spray the head gskt. with spray Copper coat. When your all back togehter check the timeing at full throttel for total advance and Do not go over what is in the book for the engine and other thing with the 6 cylinder gasser as i have said before ya GOTTA run the 93 octain gas as this is one of the problems that ya run into along with swelling of the pistons and this can cause seezen the engine.
