No need for compression test Gordon, my block is intact.

This is all due to a leaking head gasket that manifested itself after the no limits track night through coolant bubbling and spilling into the overflow under constant boost like at Barbagallo...Tee Kay test revealed contaminants in the fluid which is a sign of head gasket leaks.

To fix it requires pulling the block out, so I thought it's the right time to throw in forged pistons, rods, head studs, and a nitrated crank.

So nothing bad has happened to my block, more like preventing it by tackling the gasket issue early. Car is still driving fine right now on the roads.

Rant on- Only fucking annoying fucking fuck fucking thing is that it was fucking completely unplanned for, so the bank balance and all other things planned for the year is taking a fucking hit. Fucking shit fuck fuck cunt of a fucking thing - rant over

Oh, cool. How much boost r u runing btw? No boost spiking? Maybe it is just head being lifted for a short amount of time? U may justneed a better boost controller.

Did temperature go up?

You would know the feels if you had that happen to you... I'm happy to talk about what happened, but things like gasket leaking is gasket leaking, doesn't matter if just a short time or not, still not good for the engine is left as is... silly to bring it up, still needs fixing...
