Are you thinking of going that route? If so, that would be very cool.....

trying to resize pics is a pain in the butt. What is the easiest way for me post these so you guys can see them?

Right click on your photo, go to "Open With", and select the "Paint" program. Go to "Image", and then click on "Stretch/Skew". Under the "Stretch" options, just punch in the vertical and horizontal % that you want of the original photo, and then once you have what you want, go to "File", and select "Save As" to rename and save the resized image. It's really easy

So any idea of what you are going to do? I never knew a blown head gasket could cause this kind of damage.

That sucks Bryan.. Well I guess now you will need to change your sig..

Wow, never thought it would be a head gasket. How much damage is done to the head? Hard to see from the pics. If I remember right you drop your fuel pressure. Not really sure if it was lean or the timing. I think you might be running more boost than you think. Put it back together and drop it to 18 degs to be safe and also watch the A/F. Mine had lock wire gaskets, don't know if they really work better or not.

You'll need to up your FP. If you don't you'll be maxing out the duty cycle of your injectors and there could be failure. Thats what might have happened here. Also, make sure your tank is above 1/3 of a tank, if not thats asking for trouble too.. I know you know this stuff, just giving you idea's.

I was thinking about the loc wire gaskets. Not sure if those would work with this damage without being milled. Don't really want to mill everything.
You can feel the depression left in the head right where it blew.
I'll bring it to work tomorrow and have our mechanic take a look at it and see if he has any advice.

 

[gaslight]

a lot of trial and error but finally got a image of the right size.

tough to see but the block is a little scorched between the two cylinders but seems ok. THe cast iron can take more of that then the aluminum can.
Cleaned it right up after.

Anything is possible, depends on how hard it would be to find one and what the price would be compared to a 347 stroker.

hard to get good detail up close with this camera.

plus the wiring, computer and all the other associated hardware. Big task that would take a lot of time and money. I wouldn't do it unless I had a donor car real cheap and lots of time.
Now how about a Dart or World block stroked to 371 and a power adder. Sick power to be had there if you have some cash.

Damn Bryan! That sucks ass bro!

 

[DoubleONegative]
