if its just a head gasket, thats a no brainer. you could clean up the olds and make a few changes (for the better) and still be ahead.

If you're gonna do a complete rebuild...there are a few things you really should do...if they've not already be done to the bottom-end / oiling. THe Olds guys here can enlighten.

Well worth the minor machining & cost.

How did you lose a head gasket? In the water? Trailer?
