I did a port and polish on my stock head and it made a world of difference. Rebuild the head and p&p it and you shall fly if you are a all stock class I took my intake tube and cut a huge hole in the bottom of it and covered it with a cut up k&n filter and it lets it breath unrestricted. Also match up you exhaust mani with the head is a good good thing to!

Why do you say hi instead of I? That confused the crap out of me until I figured what you meant.

Well, the 2 biggest things would be to get the head shaved and the block decked just only enough for both to be flat though. You should have the head pressure checked too, to make sure it isn't cracked.

Beyond that, just letting the engine warm up before beating on it will help out your head gasket issues too.

Denis, trouve toi un gasket de tete Felpro ou Victor Reinz SEULEMENT. Lautre chose a faire, cest une switch pour la fan de radiateur. Si tu laisse le moteur chauffer, tu va sauter les gasket a toute les fois.

Le secret cest davoir une tete planner, un bon gasket de tete et de garder le moteur frais.

I told him to get a Felpro or Victor Reinz head gasket and to keep the engine cool. If he let it get hotter than what the thermostat is, it will blow another head gasket.

Hey, do you have a AZWN def. file, or one for AULA?

i found a OLD GM Tec bulliten that said to use a 160* t-stat. thats what i am using in my GTZ. runs good. Victor Reinz is the company that made the OE head gaskits for GM.

I pulled my t-stat out. I ended up putting a 7/8th inch restrictor in it to get some heat in it
