Better luck next time.

so what caused all these problems, are they easily overcome or will there need to be a bit of a rethink on how things are setup or was it just bad luck?

Was the block decked sam?

You shouldn't need the copper head gasket if the internals are stock, but then again you will need it when you put the blower back on.

The transfer ands gearbox Ithink were just bad luck but the engine was running hot from the start so there is a problem there.
