Exclamation Problems with Head studs?

Has anyone had any issues with the Rocker Girdle not seating correctly back onto the head after putting in ARP head studs? I am think I might have a washer on one of the bolts that is not allowing the girdle to seat fully on the head causing a leak on the top of the back part of the head?

Has anyone else had this type of issue?

I've seen it posted several times that you need to grind the back of the rocket housing to clear a washer on one of the rear-most studs. Put a little grease on the washer, put the rocker housing on, then take it back off, and you'll see exactly where you need to clearance it.
