Today i got the head off my BHG'd motor and it had been repaired before. Whoever did it probably machined the head because they used a shim.
My question is, how does the shim seal to the block being that its just flat sheet metal? it looked like the exhaust from the combustion chamber was entering almost every coolant and oil passage in every cylinder.
Could i get away with no shim and just a fel-pro HG?
