Thank you guys.

Sorry I did not see your thread earlier...I fabricated the same "Saturn wrench" that you needed and posted directions for it. It does not look like you need it at this point but here is the link if needed.

Well, I finally put her back together. I have the valves adjusted, and she running good. When I first started her up, I had a little amber coming out of the exhaust every now and then, but my thought is that since I have taken her apart that it is probably burning of some particles. After 2 minutes at idle the amber were gone. All my gauges are reading prefect. I let her idle for 30 minutes. I had no leaks. I took her for a very slow ride around the yard. She is doing great but I did not want to test her tonight. So after driving her about five minutes, I parked her and let her idle down. I shut her off after the cool down period. No leak, and no concerning sound. I have not put her under any strain yet, but I am anxious to get her on the road again.

Good job AJ! I Know how much work a head gasket job entails
and you successfully pulled it off by yourself!
After a few hrs of operation (post head gasket job) on mine, I readjusted valves, found a few a little tight.
Now let's see some progress on the camper conversion!
