 That's not uncommon, depending on which head & how much has been taken off=
 it; the thickness of the flat in the squish varies...

If you think you have a cracked head or bad head gasket, try pressurizing t=

I would also verify that the ignition timing is not too far advanced. Not t=

Note that you can also use the Stant gauge to verify "normal" system pressu=

Good luck figuring out the problem.

Brand new short block, same old head, water pump, and radiator.

Over three trials, the engine will run fine and warm up with radiator hoses=
 and radiator warming properly. Then the hoses and radiator will cool and c=
oolant temp will spike to 230+. Radiator cold with sky high coolant temps.
Two more clues, hoses seem to pressurize very quickly and when I opened the=
 radiator cap this morning (after cooling all night) pressurized air and co=

No thermostat and I have confirmed three times that system is completely fu=

Seems I have combustion gases getting into coolant and then bubbles eventua=
lly removing pump prime.
Don't know what else it could be.
Given the apparent direction of the leak, is there any use in trying some "=
stop leak" product?
Is it time to pull the head again to look for warping or gasket leak?
I suppose it could be a cracked cylinder, but this block has been checked b=
y two different trusted engine machinists.
Desperately trying to get to the RunOffs, Anthony._________________________=
