Removed the head, cleaned the 2 mating surfaces and ready to put the head back on. This is the biggest job I have ever done on a diesel engine and I do not want to mess up. I have the torquing sequence from the FSM and read everything thru. Anything I need to pay attention to? Any pitfalls? Do I need to do something special to the timing chain tensioner?

Thanks
