stock headgasket and decent power for me fadi. your close to tony. he can do it

 

So has anyone ran a 3mm cometic headgasket with success???

 

i have a 3mm inlinepro hg for sale if you are interested

 

no thanks. I already have a cometic 3mm headgasket. I have just been trying to figure out what to use.
Do i use OEM bolts or ARP studs...copper spray or no copper spray....etc.
I guess it is just going to have to be trial and error.

 

hello man
what is your whp target ?
what boost will you be running ?

iam asking because it might be a good idea to keep stock cr.

B. oem bolts , no need for replacement unless you are shooting for 550+

 

i was aiming for 500 to 600 whp. I want it to just last me about a year until i finish building my other block.

 

oooohhh
you defenately gona need HG
i used the 3mm inline pro for about 1600 miles ,stock studs , with no issues with the hg itself
but i broke a rod

about the arp studs.
if your mechanic knows how to do the installation and have done it before with succes, then use them
follow the instructions and use the molly lube provided with the studs.
its a very good product , but with many issues because of wrong installations

i was a victim of wrong installation also ....

on the other hand there is no confusion about the stock studs, and i have never heard that they couldnt hold and they broke.

how many miles do you have on your engine ?

This post I was asking Jeff Evans about the headgasket.
