I'd be suprised if the exhaust gasket was missing.... Also when you did the head gasket did you use new head bolts etc?
Since the rebuild did you actually run the car in?

steve you told me you found a split in the plastic stat housing that you could not find last week,and you were going to change it yourself,also mate hitting temps of 130 degs because of water loss will not help your head gasket.
mate get it back down if you need it looked at, also you told me you are still driving it,so drive it down.sigpic
