Have any of you experienced a small amount of moisture visible between the head and block where they come together on the driver's side of the block? I noticed this the first time I assembled my motor. Not a lot and not running down the block - just visible. I had to pull the head because I managed to pull one of the lifters out and flopped it on its side! So I figured good enough I would just replace the Felpro gasket with another new one anyway. So I reassembled everything with a new gasket. Torque is right on. Head and block are flat. Had the head milled but used washers to compensate so the bolts wouldn't bottom out. But still, I see just a bit of residual moisture when I run it. Plugs look good - not like any amount of coolant is getting into the combustion chamber. Really scratching my head!! Is it possible this is nothing more than condensation? Been offline for a while but good to get back on with you guys.....
