John, Looks like Johnner called it right. He told me at the dyno event he thought the gasket popped between cylinders... He's a smart one.

Yup, soon as we got the head off you could tell the gasket was on its last leg since they layers were coming apart as well.

Elaborate please, how much boost, egt's etc. etc. Did Keegan use the Cometic gasket or which one?

To short a notice, to much truck work, a turbo for one guy, injectors for another and a Furd that needs those front bushings.

Phil:

Keegan had the stock headgasket in there, but had put 12mm studs in sometime last year as I remember. I can't tell you about his boost, EGTS, etc.
though. He will have to get in here and post on that.

Stock gasket on a CR is a MLS style gasket.

Shoot Adam. You know a lot about these trucks already. Since you already know what MLS means you're a head of a bunch of people on these diesel sites!
