Fellow Inline Sixers...

In my continuing effort to get a motor into my GT6 project (I think I finally
have a winner-only took 20 tons-o-pressure to remove the pistons, but the
block looks okay-thanks Mark), I have found lots of different combos of
head/block relationships. It seems that many of these pairings never left the
factory that way, so I started wondering exactly which head/block combos are
"right". So...what I ask of all you is to trot on out to the shrine, I mean,
garage, wipe the accumulated crud off the numbers and send them to me. Please
? 
The engine number is at the head/block interface on the left side of the
motor, between the distributor and the back of the engine, and the head
number is on the right side between the first and second head stud at the
front of the motor, right on top between the nuts.

If anyone has an interest in the results, I'd be glad to post the summary.
