Maybe next time ring the block and head and not have to worry about expensive head gaskets.
Speaking of which have you done a compression test?

I just palmed face so hard I am now bleeding and partially blind. You have got to be joking. Please tell me you are.
Compression test isn't going to prove jack shit unless you absolutely fucked up the head installation or the gasket is severely messed up. When the cylinder fires it puts more pressure on the head gasket than just cranking the engine over will ever do.
