I cannot keep these heads down. No knock, 11.4 afr with meth, 25psi boost. I am using head studs, RJC stainless gaskets. Will I be better off with aluminum heads and head clamps maybe?
Congrats on the new best times. Sorry about the gasket. Get rid of the RJC shims, I'd recommend the cometics, don't waste your money on the clamps. If it was my call, the Mer would go, replace with a FAST... Give me a call, we can talk about it....
