I'm in Miami. I'm going to try and get all the parts I need b/w this week and next. I won't be able to start this until next tuesday, which means i'll probably be working on it next saturday. I'll probably post something on SFFBA to see if anyone wants to help! I know you just finished doing a cam and heads swap too.

, I know when my brother's 96 Z had a blown head gasket it was due to his passenger side head warping. His car is a heads/cam full exhaust car and it would just pour smoke out of the exhaust at stop lights (white smoke). It never got any coolant in the oil, but his radiator would always get low. When the installer did the tear down, he said the number 8 piston was "sparkling clean". Obviously from the coolant covering it. Apparently, the head probably warped when his car overheated like for 2 minutes. This was just enough to warp the head and require it to be milled to eliminate the warpage.
Good luck with it, and it really is just time consuming.
