Below are pics from 15 May 05.. Pulled the engine to investigate possible head gasket problem..
Turns out #3 sleeve dropped a tad in the bore allowing the head gasket to fail.  Plans are to
take motor back to builder for repairs.  He (Evolution Engines) has agreed to repair at no cost
to me.  The motor only had 1400 miles on it when this happened and barely out of break-in where it
was babied.  Below are pics of the Cometic replacement gaskets.

Update 28 June 05: Motor has been repaired but not yet installed.  Going to do some touch up painting while its out.
