Hello V8,
Yes you re right, I just thought about what I wrote soon after I sent the message, and of course changing the head has nothing to do with the gasket!
I put the head and there is apparently no problem with the fuilds. but now I kind of understand why the car that the head comes from could barely start (30km + second gear!). Ok, the bottom was very worn , but I have a tremendous valve adjustment issue!! I checked the maintenance of the car, the papers show that the oil change etc were OK, and for sure the car barely run in town ... but I cannot see any valve clearance job . So I will do it during the following day, and maybe I will use the shims from the head I broke?
