Hi Randy,
No, it was the other side I didn't do. I knew I should of done it When I did the other one but I didn't. I called edelbrock and the guy told me that those gaskets should of never been used as there only good up to 10-1 compression and will deteriorate at the higher compression rates. I replaced with fel-pro copper wire with blue poly. These are great gaskets and he said I shouldn't have any more problems. It makes me mad that CHP uses these $10.00 gaskets instead of a $40.00 dollar one. "Cheap Bastards". Anyway I finished it all up today. I took my time and cleaned everything as I went. There were alot of hard to reach chrome areas that you can't get to when it's all assembled.
