No oil cooler. Head Gasket would be the fortunate problem of the possibles. I don’t have anything else before bad head or other. I will order a new gasket. Wish I could drive and pick one up. It’ll be 3 to 5 days before I have one. I should get some other options in place.

PS I’m thinking I should move directly toward tracking down a machinist and taking that head and my old head to him and have them tested. My old one has what I think is a small crack in the middle, though that was not what resulted in failure. If I end up with a good head I can use the new gasket with that. I sent Joe Curto a message. He might know someone in White Plains.

Crazy idea- I do have my old head that was from a B20f itself. Maybe for the immediate short term I try it out? That’s crazy though. I would definitely need a new gasket for that. Still...
