    • Mike I think what they are hinting at is......"Hey guys I've decided to sell the nitrous kit and put that money towards a fresh shortblock". In other words if you can't afford to replace it today, then dont put nitrous on it. If its truely your daily driver then treat it as so until you can afford another car. Refills cost between $25-$50, head gaskets cost $50-$100 to replace each time. It all adds up. Why not sell the nitrous, keep it NA, donate $40 per week that you would spend on the nitrous to a "build a stroker fund?" Then when it blows you just order up $2500 in parts and its not putting you on top Ramen for a month.

        If that's the way you guys feel the so be it.
        I don't care how many threads you start, or if you blow your car up, but what is the purpose of asking questions and then not listening to the serious responses. It's like your buddy majorownage thinking he knows more about cars than Paul, never gonna happen and it just makes you guys look like even bigger idiots.

          I'm on a budget and a time frame. Excuse me for doing whats best for me, and not you.
          Get ready to drop 4-5k on a dart block.

          • forgive me for not reading the complete thread, what headgasket are you putting back on. those stock graphites you had on there worked great. their all I use, just wondering. If it's the first time apart, replace those tty headbolts with arp's.
            Don't worry about what you can't change.
            Do the best you can with what you have.
            Be honest, even if it hurts.

              The thing that gets me is that mike and his buddies just can't grasp the fact that there are people on here that have a clue and have been there and done that many times, daily for some of us.

                        According to them, the graphites failed in multiple places. Which from me staring at the steel ring 3 inches away from my face cannot see not ONE defect. But they are blown in multiple spots from a shitty picture taken at 1am with a 100w drop light in an otherwise dark garage.. Yeah.. Hmm???

                        I'm going back with 9333pt1 like the board suggested, and I'm using new arp head bolts. I'm also using the same plug that diabolic uses, yet I never listen to the board...

                        It was my fault and i was incorrect in thinking the headgasket failed. I was wrong, and jumped to conclusions and mistakes my water pump flowing water for "exhaust bubbles". And since when do you repalace a short block for a little carbon build up on the pistons? Got to be serious... Still has the crosshatches clearly visible, which is impressive to me.

                        Its all cleaned and it's fine, if you guys think it will blow then fine, I guess we will all see that it will be okay. And if it does, I obviously have the means of transportation to get things squared away!

                        I appreciate all your concerns and abusive warnings. I take everything I read here Into consideration. But some of the things y'all come up with, I wonder where you come up with it.. Lol

                        Oh and I got a steal on the entire n2o kit with accessories. And money isn't tight, I'm just on a budget.

                              Well, when you don't know what you're talking about and say someone's shit is going to blow up, of course you'll get told to STFU.

                                Stock Mach 1 shortblock with close to 500rw in on borrowed time. The rods don't like that. But I believe the engine outlasted the car on that one. Lol

                                Either way, telling me I'm going go blow it with a mild h/c/I at best with a small wet shot, with a plate soon... Is kind of surreal.
