I can second handedly attest to that! I rebuilt a diesel for one of my
sisters. They were ready to put the head on while I was busy so they
had a nearby shop do it. After putting about 150 miles on it, she called
to say the oil light would NOT go out! Since the'yd driven so far I figured
it was just a loose wire. Nope, that shop put the head gasket on upside
down. No oil to the head. I pulled the cover and a cap and it was still
fine. Good thing I used that moly grease and some oil for assembly I
guess!
Idiot ended up cracking that freshly bored block in at least two bolt
holes when he fixed his first screw up too. :-(
