Get the specs for tolerances, get a good straight-edge and a set of feeler gauges. Divide the mating surface into "zones" and check each zone thoroughly in different directions. That, or just get it resurfaced, its cheap while the head is off. Anytime the head is removed the mating surface can distort or warp.
