Default Dart heads and GM rocker pedastools.

Has anyone had any seating issues with them sitting flat on the head?

Well, I was putting ARP head studs in (been running stock head bolts for 2 years) due to pushing water on the spray. Well, I found that it had broke




So, after thinking nothing of it, I went and bought some new GM ones. Well, after mocking it up, the little tabs on the corners and the sides of the rocker pedastool do not allow it to seat flatly on the head..

Anyone else running Dart heads have this issue??
