Thanks for the feedback. I plan on pulling the heads tomorrow or Thursday. There was no coolant/oil mix. The car was running fine up until that last launch to 60-70 mph. Scanmaster read 0.0 knock, but spun abnormaly long on that launch and just drove it out. Did not see where the boost was when that happened. (boost set to17-18 with some creep) When he stopped the car was running rough and smoke was puffing out of the breathers. Compression tests results were 150 psi on all cylinders but #3 which had 40 psi. I'm hoping that because it happened so quickly that he just pushed out the head gasket and the compression is going into the valley puffing out the breathers. Either way if its cracked rings or a hole in a piston, I guess I will start by removing the heads. I said the car was stock but it does have an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, walbro fuel pump, hotwire, adjustable wastegate, tt chip,no exhaust except for stock down pipe and et streets 235/60/15. Back to my question, will 9441 gaskets be reliable for this setup? I'm going to put this car up for sale as soon as it's done. Priced to move quick. However I want to make the repair with some integrity and if the 9441's are no good or if people with relatively stock cars have had problems with them that would be great to know. I will put 1000's on if that is what the car needs but I already have a set of 9441's.
Or should they be changed out like you would with bolts ? If so why use studs??
