Topic: MLS head gasket question. Head gasket leaking again.

[brandEn]

Everything is still apart and I am waiting for my new head gasket from Dynoman. I did not retorque the head last time. I don't think I will do it this time either. But I will dab a small amount of blue loctite on the head nuts.

My thoughts are not so much the nuts loosening but rather the head gasket settling in and the studs stretching.

You, Tweakin and I need to figure out how to get our 3 fine F's together for a photo shoot and ride!

I have never owned a MS gasket on a bike. We used to use them on our drag cars. YOU MUST use a particular stone to create a certain finish on the head/block surface for the MLS to "bite" and seal properly. First set of multi layered steel I used I didn't know that. Oil poured between the head and the block when it was still on the engine stand it leaked so bad. 

Have you talked to Cometic? Or maybe you used another brand of MLS gasket. Ask whoever made your gasket.They should be able to point you in the right direction. Good luck!
