I always tighten my heads and all screws in a optimum pattern so it seats evenly all the way around. I like to relate it to tuning a drum if you will (have played for 15 years).

so is this normal? or do i need to look at other potential issues? Like i said the engine is a animal so the performance is great. But if fuel/oil can leak out, air and dirt can come in.
