There she blows (headgasket failure x2)
There she blows (headgasket failure x2)
Well after being boosted for 48K Miles of constant beatage with 8PSI on Emanage then on Kpro & ARP headstuds the Headgasket finally went.
Coolant system goes under crazy pressure when I'm driving causing coolant to blow out of the coolant overflow resevoir. Yeah this happened to me before and it was a bad headgasket. I guess not bad for lasting 48K miles.
So yeah I could replace the HG myself for 35$ plus 70$ to re-surface the head and labor myself.
Or I could spend 350$ on another engine thats VTEC (since mine is non-vtec) and get that little extra HP lower mileage then build the motor thats in my car and make it mint as a backup.
What would you do?
(i mean if the head is warped i just wasted cash on that and will still have to pull engine)
