how much boost right now?

Around 18psi, I really don't have time to look at the gauge, my friend has seen it spike to 22psi, the head gasket is starting to go now anyway.

On a good note I ordered a set of 94mm bore JE pistons for the new engine. :)

I might be making another turbo manifold to accommodate a larger turbo so the one I have will be up for sale if I do.

Hmmmm...If you have an idea of how much you'd like for the mani my brother may be intested....shoot me a PM.

Are you serious the HG is going again WITH the ARPs? LOL you rock at blowing stuff up.

The mani will be up for sale if I make another one, could be a few months.

Yeah the head gasket has a small leak and pressurizes the cooling system on long fourth and fifth gear pulls but under light boost it's fine.

0-rings are your next step.

**Lurker27** · 03-12-2009, 05:57 PM

I'd have thought an MLS head gasket with ARP or similar studs torqued to spec would be enough to avoid O-ringing the block.

At this point I need to pull the head and see if it's the gasket or cracked head. I'm thinking throw on the MLS and see how much it can take.
