I am about 1100 miles on the 100M after rebuilding the top end, and it is now
bubbling at the right side margin with coolant. We haven't retorqued the head,
and are about due to do it, and I was wondering if any of you had
recommendations about working some sealant in before tightening down. Can you
pry up the head to get some sealer in, or does that kill the head gasket? I
put in a NOS copper/steel 100M gasket, which is only one of two I have, and
I'd like to avoid having to replace it. Any ideas?
