Message	Well the stock headgasket was what went on my race engine. Sure took seven years and 20lbs of boost. Stock will hold but wont last. Why not use something better if it is available. Greg's car is a drag car, mine is a circuit car, quite different operating conditions. Doubt a 1000hp engine will last long with stock head gasket - in fact I doubt it will last long at all, ha ha. Tokoyoz32 if you are serious about a 1000hp engine that will stick together you will probably have to dry sump it.

(n/m) - aliaZ 07:35:48 04/18/11 Not 100% positive that it could hold the power. (n/m) - toykoz32 11:46:14 04/18/11 FWIW, Greg D runs a stock gasket (n/m) - aliaZ 12:21:14 04/18/11 as well as Russell's 1000+rwhp vert. (n/m) - KongZTT GT28RS MD 19:18:48 04/18/11 Was this ever confirmed? I heard there was wheel slip - toykoz32 22:15:46 04/18/11 That was with his GT2871s I believe.. - KongZTT GT28RS MD 23:34:48 04/18/11 he likely wouldn't have exceeded 1000rwhp - aliaZ 08:40:39 04/19/11 Whats his highest boost pressure? (n/m) - toykoz32 22:14:44 04/18/11 not sure - aliaZ 06:10:45 04/20/11 For some reason.. I was thinking the same thing.. - KongZTT GT28RS MD 09:43:51 04/20/11 I might be around 40 (n/m) - toykoz32 02:30:30 04/21/11 it can.
