i talked to the guy who bought my pulling truck a few years ago, and he said that it is still running on the original gasket and bolts. when i owned it i ran it for a year at 40-50psi on the stock hx35, then i purchased a II super phatshaft 62 and was running over 60psi. the guy i sold it to has been sled pulling it for 3 years now and was running a silver bullet. has anyone had a head gasket take a beating like this, the only thing i can think that could have stopped it from blowing for this long is i cut 2 fins off the coolant pump which may have relieved some pressure on the head. it use to blow coolant out the overflow bottle free reving to 5000rpm
