Another blown head gasket!

Damn.. Was it tuned?

Yes. But the work to the block was not good and basically didn’t make a good seal and took head gasket out under boost. Should be good now.

What was done to block? By who? Hope it wasn't Millenium.

It was surfaced by a builder that does cars and the finish had a few scratches I guess that allowed boost thru. It should have done better because the engine is under boost. Normally would have been fine for a non boosted motor. It was NOT Millennium. No one anyone on here would no. It should have went to someone that knows these motors. Live and learn. It wasn’t my coin so I’m over it.

The last block and head Millenium did for me came back better than new. Absolute mirror finish on both. Put that tuned one (300 HP) together w ARP head studs as well.
