[C38] head gasket

[PAUL NOTTE]

LOL 
       Larry , It was a great experience and I would not trade it for anything , after all I own a great boat and I wouldn't trade it for anything either. 
  POWER TO THE 38s
 My head gasket will be here tomorrow. I finally got an experienced parts guy he said there is only one head gasket for the 1102 although there are shims to compensate for planing the head. Out with the micrometer [ and a phd to read it for me ] and all will be well
  CHEERS
