man car was running decent then i gave it a 75 shot of juice...must have had a weak spot on the headgaskets cause car is not running rough but while im driving i can feel a little hesitation..and then i looked at the antifreeze container and the **** is brown...matter fact i tried to start it once and it cranked a few times before starting like there was loss of compression...either way i gues i gotta do what i gotta ...i wanna run 100 shot so i might as well put on better gaskets...anyone know what to use..have a tfs t/w heads....i wanna put those mls cometic they seem to be the best and i know they will hold up with the juice...but if there is beter ones let me know please...also what can i add to the top end...its already got 1.6 tfs rockers and hardened pushrods ok guys any help would be appreciated

Something is wrong if your blowing head gaskets w/ a 75 shot. I know the feeling, I did the same thing w/ a 150 shot. Make sure that your getting enough fuel otherwise it will burn the head gasket. I know from experience. I put my car on a dyno and found that it was running way lean w/ the juice.

headgasket

well the thing is..last year i had a smal electric fan on the car and when i would be at a street ligt idleing witht he ac on the car would overheat and it did it so many times so i thik i damaged it the...but it wasnt bad til i used the juice..maybe the nitrous u know went straight to the weak point

so what can/if anything add to the top end...while im there...heads are ported and polished already.....

i run those felpro blue head gaskets on my 351w i havent had any trouble with them. i run 150 hp shot of juice. I also have a extra fuel pump supplying the fuel solinoid on my nitrous plate. Just to make sure i always have lots of fuel. no pinging on the juice and i have 32 degrees of timing in. 38 without the juice.
