Ok I got the head off my coupe todayand the head gasket was not only blown, but annihilated. It had blown all the way to the out side of the block, not just between cylinders. All the head bolts on the exhaust side were loose except for the front and very back ones. My question is this common or did the head bolts not get torqued down? I am going to say that the motor has been rebuilt because there is no ridge at the top of the cylinders.
