[QUOTE="cdmccul, post: 124032, member: 9318"] IMO, once a gasket is compressed, it's done. The gasket crunches down and fills all final imperfections. It won't crush down right a second time. You might have a cracked block, could be a cracked head (but you said you put new on... Used?). Could be a bad water pump or timing case gasket, depending on design... I haven't had one of these tore down to that point. I know they aren't related to SB Ford, but with 289/302/351w the water pump and timing case bolts go through the water jacket, and can leak water into the oil. Just an idea to look at. [/QUOTE]
