You had the block decked and you had the head resurfaced.Does it have studs or bolts to hold the head on?If its bolts you might need to run a bottoming tap down the threads to get a good torque on them.You have removed metal and your bolts might be hanging up before they get tight in rust or crud in the threads since the bolts need to go deeper now.You might even need a thicker washer or something if the bolts are bottoming out.I dont think that would happen,but anything is possible.If the bolt holes go into the water jacket,other than tapping them to make sure the threads are clean I dont know what else it could be.Also its a good idea to check the liner protrusion and to retorque the head after you run it and get it warmed up good.There is a depth mic or something to check liner protrusion.Maybe a dial indicator rig.
