I removed those bolts and saw the washers were deformed (I had torqued bolts to the recommended 20 ft lbs) so I tapped them flat as best I could and used the one extra washer on a bolt. I had success with a couple I had massaged as well as the bolt with the new washer.

So I called Speedway, talked to some folks and explained that I was not able to completely test one block. They understood and sent me a bunch (more that I needed) of these sealing washers, will be here Saturday, at no charge

Just thought I'd share a positive example of Customer Service.
