Default WhaddaYaKnow? 65lbs breaks water necks!

Putting the Brumfield head back on with the 7014 Felpro gasket. I get to 55 lbs, and then get the engine nice and warm.

Go for my final 65 lbs and pop!

Now, I noticed that there wasn't a gasket under the water neck before, but I had a gasket so I decided to put one on. Is that where I messed up?

Looks like the neck is a repop aluminum one. I'll track down a cast iron one and probably not put a neck gasket... just a little permatex.
