damn, headgasket is no biggie though, GPC did one for $500

Yeah just keep checking your oil in the dip stick + oil cap. Chocolate milkshake is a good description. This is bad. Coolant into cylinders isn't as bad though, can go either way.

Ikr .. But bcoz the motor still has warranty it will be sorted accordingly.

And GPC wont knw wat HG to get. They mite just wack in an oem spec and make things worse latter in the track!! No offence at all, but they dont knw wats been done to the motor.

Lol bro, GPC have done hundreds if not thousands of B20 conversions, im pretty sure they would be know what head gasket to use.

Make sure when the head comes off that it is crack tested at combustion chamber pressure, as I have come accross a few heads in the recent past that have cracked, but are not evident at cooling system pressure

No doubt at all.

But probably STD B20 with standard internals.

But to be on the safeside i rather get the person who build the motor or knows the motor build from scratch to replace it..

This motor was built for track/drags.. So internals has been tweaked and pretty much modded.

Yep.. Thanks will definately ensure they make the necessary tests when the head is off.
