The gasket that I used originally was the one that came in the kit for the 4.1 which was the Felpro #8723PT1. This gasket is crap!!! It is grey in color and has orange lines on it. I researched some more and on turbobuicks.com, the head gasket list includes this gasket but it also says "DO NOT USE THIS GASKET IN A TURBO ENGINE, EVER!! WRONG DESIGN!"

I guess I had a brain fart.:eek: I pulled the motor out to check everything and found that cylinders 4 and 6 were blown OUT! #2 was leaking and #'s 1 and 3 were leaking on the other bank.

Hope this clears this up about what gasket that I originally used. Ended up calling Jack Cotton and orderd the Cometic from him. I am about to put the motor back in today.

Hard lesson learned but it could have been worse.
