[alfa] Head gasket warning



The OEM head gaskets provided do not have the adhesive applied correctly. You must add a gasket sealer at the rear of the gasket to allow for the rear oil galleys to be sealed properly. I use Permatex Ultra grey (light thin coating) on both sides of the gasket around the two oval shaped holes at the rear of the head gasket.

I have had quite a few calls telling me of water in the oil because the oil galleys did not seal correctly.
