Ah heres the BIGGY , Did you have the head resurfaced when it blew the last time ?? Before you stuffed the head back on the last time did you run a tap down into the block to clean out the holes for the head bolts and did you run a thread chaser or die over the threads on the head bolts . Also did you use two guide studs to hold the head gskt. while setting the head and lightly lube the threads on the bolts before you put them in . Myself i am vary fussy about who's head gskt's i will use . If it is NOT the OEM quality Victor we will NOT use it . When working on someone tractor it is on there dime and if it has a problem and comes back then it is on my dime . so when i am done with it i do not want to see it back for and issue where i had my fingers into as now it is on my dime . so two ways to go about seeing what is going on here , (1) drop the pan and let it drip dry for a few says then place a piece of cardboard under it fill the cooling system then pressurize it and start looking for drips , (2) pull the head and have the head checked and resurfaced and get a better head gskt. and follow what i said .

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
