Cut your losses and redo them -- meaning get new gaskets. That's cheaper and easier than having to pull the heads again down the road.

Exactly! Before you do damage from overheating ,or getting AF in the oil and damaging the bearings or some thing else.

And btw,you wouldn't have had that prob if you didn't put any crap on the gasket.
