That sux about your gasket, I'm hoping that I don't have to deal with that at some point.

I was noticing that you have O-rings and the Allen Bolts.

I like the Allen Bolts, but wouldn't think that they would work well with O-rings. The allen bolts are good with an original head gasket, but studs are much better when you have to re-torque things several times.
