    Regular head gaskets vs. 0-ring groove

    Ok, so I'm freshening my motor before it gets boost, and the heads on it are regular trick flow twisted wedge. Almost all of the gasket kits I've seen are for O-ring groove heads, and I was wondering if I can get regular head gaskets since my heads arn't O-ring groove, or if its the same thing.

    buckin problem

    Yes, this is your EGR. You must connect this, especially if you need to pass emissions. This will control your idol at lower rpms up till 3/4 throttle, so at WOT, then it wont have any effect. See if you can reconnect this tube, and then you won't have any problems.
