Very true. Im not quite sure what compelled me to think that the deck of my block would be in good enough condition such that I would only need to mount on a new HG and be done with it, I guess I have much to learn about engine wear and tear. Anyways, I'll definitely keep both yours and cre's information/advice in mind as I begin to tackle on this whole BHG deal. Thanks again
