well thats the thing.
head's are o-ringed, and so are the head gaskets. While the block is not, these are still high end gaskets. So my bet is a piston will go before a head gasket will =/
I will be doing the tuning with my anderson PMS. But I will have a wideband, and a log to look back at what happened when I hit it.
I plan on the method of LESS timing, and MORE nitrous. from what I've seen with some of the "big boys" that think a 300shot is small, this is the way to go to save pistons from coming apart.

I should have a stock bore block if you need one. it is a roller. if you want to get cheaper I should also have some used forged pistons here also that dont look bad but will need rods or have them resized. or I have a full short block that needs redone. For a fee I would sell you the sort block out of the wifes car if you want to spend some bigger coin also. It should be the last engine you would ever need at that psi + 15 or so added to it. I have a boat load of stuff if you need parts you know that and I aways got that Dart block still on the stand. There is the 331 that is still here also dont know if Mark wants to sell or not but we could always call him. I know you were not looking to spend major $$. Cars you got to love them.

It's a stock block, dished(for wedge head), H-beams, Forged crank, main girdle, windage tray, 8:5:1. I am running 16psi, non intercooled; but with AFM Mr. Freeze meth, 42lb'ers, 255lph inline. AFR is steady 10:5:1 when meth kicks in(rich I know). Car runs good and strong.
HAPPY TURKEY DAY EVERYONE!!!
