OK. She's back together. Why do men refer to cars as "she." Probably because they can bring you pleasure and piss you off all in the same couple of minutes. So instead of just retorquing and calling it good, I installed a set of Fel Pro MS98000Ts. They defintely look like serious gaskets. The old ones didn't look that bad. Though you can see some "gunk:" oil and AF residue in these pics on the back cylinders:

It started right up and purred. I topped off the AF and sat there over the rad filler to keep filling as needed. No real bubbles to speak of after about a minute of random blurps. So if this was really a head gasket I thought I'd see something but I realize it still could be a head gasket but time will tell. Thanks for all the advice/feedback. I'll let you know how it goes. I think a 383 may be in my future!
