Oops, My bad. I thought you were on the 'front' of the block, as in the
side that faces the radiator when it's in place.

In your case I don't feel as easy about adding any thickness to the
items described less things get out of whack. As for the amount listed
above I don't see needed two fiber gaskets in the mix.

Help me out here, so we can be crystal clear: Are you on the flywheel
end or the crank pulley end of the motor?
