Ahh yes, I remembered the post about the metal spacer that got caught in the oil pump shearing the drive shaft and generally nuking the motor. I made sure all the metal spacers came out with the felpro gaskets I removed, as a bonus I found a piece of the original gasket in the drivers side head in the lower back side trying to fall back down into the pan. I hope not to have to pull off my valvecovers anytime soon, still no leaks!~!!
