I just completed installing new heads this weekend.
All went well except for screwing up the valley gasket
install, now I have a little waterfall from my engine.
I will redo it next weekend, I am hoping that someone
can give me a few tips (or step by step instructions).
I am not sure what I did wrong, but I think I may have
put RTV in the wrong spot (everywhere). I used "The
Right Stuff" it said to complete the assembly in like
5 minutes, well it took me a bit longer. I think that
may not be the right product for the particular
application and I think I do not need to put it on the
entire area between the valley gasket and the surface
on the head. I know I screwed up, have to learn
somehow.

Thanks in advance,
Eric
