suppose it was innevitable at some point, checked the records on the car and the gasket was fitted 30k miles ago by ggr when it was put to stage 3 335bhp. last october the car visited Stu at msd for a new chip etc upto 350bhp, was told by various folk that the head gasket would probably give way sooner or later, and it did, you can see on the pic where the dirty water stain runs down the head , been told this is one of the most common places for the gasket to weep. the other thing is that there is a manifold bolt missing and it looks like its been missing for a long time.is this a regular occurance wid the manifold bolts? anyway new commetic gaskets are coming this week along wid uprated head bolts etc. can someone tell me of any things that might be a bitch o do when we come to change the gasket. thanx in advance
