Who knows, you may be in the clear. There could be some factor or "magic" combination in your engine that does the trick. So I/we arent trying to scare you so much as just warn you that so far, everyone else on record is having issues in that territory. Most people, including me, have only had a single headgasket failure occur in our own hands. So the examples are still few.

I asked Seb about different setups that I would be safe at. His answer was he just didn't know. Nor do I. My next build could still not be safe. I have no idea. I do have someone that is willing to help me through any issues if they arise. That's a rarity in itself. Am I nervous about it. Sure am. Do overs aren't cheap.

The JMS Stage 2 Shortblock build included JMS Spec CP Pistons/Carillo Rods, ARP Mains Studs, New Main, and Rod Bearings.

Did have the Cosworth Head Gasket added during the build but again always like to get his input. I'll probably just bring the intake manifold with me and have him take a look at it.

Dyno graph my man??????
