Came to this video after the latest “Fire Ring” gasket video. 4-years back & you were still good with the video content man. No doubt on your yearly progression though! Thanks again from Washington State 👍🏼
Had a 94 12v 500-530 hp for 50,000 miles 55lbs boost 20 deg timing retorqued stock head bolts to 125ft on stock head gasket. Still no hg issues to date. 🤙
I just bought a mahle head gasket and studs for my 12v. Is this a decent gasket, I’ve heard it is and bought it from power driven diesel. Right now I have 5x12s, afc live, with a 215 pump, and a 362sxe turbo at 50lbs and my stock bolts and gasket has lasted 265k miles. I’m hoping that this gasket and studs will handle a small towing compound at 55-65lbs.
👍💪 Dang, I just got 6.7 Mahle gasket set instead of IB kit from PDD. Also Xotic studs. Doh!! Only running stock turbo and boost still but Gasket is blown.
I'm running a cheeta turbo on my 2006. Getting ready to put in ddp 50 hp injectors with efi live. Should I consider replacing my stock head bolts for studs? Cheeta Shouldn't boost over 40 psi. Thanks

I would with that charger
Stock head bolts are made to stretch the stock head gasket is made to expand. Head studs will not give and just bust the block
😂 settle down Gale banks jr
So is there a situation where you would rather use a fire ring I'm still learning diesel I am trying to get my 05 back up and running
yes for big power singles or compounds!
Thank you there is no such thing as a 425 stud....
