machining mistake

Unfortunately the gasket and head overlap the top of the timing belt cover, so the block and cover need to be at the same level. What you read is correct, the safest way is to bolt the cover back on and have it machined down to the same height as the block.

PS; Have you put the block back into the Supra ?
