AAM Intake Manifold Q

Ya its very hard to say. Nobody has pinpoint a root cause of the failures yet. There is a handful of suspects, but none that are really standing out. We will figure out more in time, as more people seem to want to push higher power lately... or at least those who are, are being open about it and sharing information. 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.
