Almost blew up Turbo Slant

Didn't know they didn't have one. Has anyone called them and asked if anyone were to send then a stock one they could start making the multi layer? Just curious



Matt,I initially talked to Cometic on the phone about three years ago about making a MLS-gasket for a slant six for a forced induction motor, and at that time, their position was, yes, we will make one for you, but it will cost $3,000.00 for the original tooling cost. I decided that I couldn't afford that, so, went with the Iskenderian O-Ring route, instead. I followed Aaron's lead and cut the block to match the diameter of the Fel Pro "fire ring," a circular, metal area just a small distance outside the bore. The O-Rings are centered on that metal ring. I torqued the head to 90 pounds feet in 5 pounds feet increments, and re-torqued it, after it had warmed up.:prayer::prayer::prayer::prayer:

So far, so good, but ten pounds of boost is as high as I have tested it, currently... More boost will be forthcoming soon, as I finally get it on the strip for some test and tune.

That will be interesting! :coffee2:
