Perhaps a 606 head gasket and careful application of Johnny Berryman's favorite

It would be expensive if the proper prechambers were not included.
Did you need to change injection lines too?
Expensive w/o the prechambers, you are correct, but mine included
chambers and injectors. The angle difference was not enough that I
needed to change the injector lines, they remain the original '87 lines
from the 14 head.
