Years ago I drove my Command Car over to NJ for a truck show. Trip was good no problems but it was a hot day. Got home put her away and a few weeks later I went to pull her back out of the garage and Noticed she was missing. Pulled the plugs and check compression. She was blown between 4 and 5 cylinders. Got a copper felpro gasket and gave it few coats of Coopercoat spray for head gaskets. Had the head shaved to make sure it was flat. Then I found out that my engine was missing that water distribution tube. When the French rebuild the engine they never put it back in. Good Luck and have fun. Bill.
