ImLow78 Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 (edited) Did the RTV work? If you do change the head gasket be sure to put a MLS (Multi Layer Steel) gasket back on it. Then you will never have to worry about it ever again. We use MSL on out 17deg Small block Chevy in our drag radial car (Street car) and we shoot Three kits to it, 300hp on the 1st,250 on the 2nd and another 150hp on the 3rd. Even with all that we have never blown one. So for your truck I would say the MLS would out last the vehicle.

Forevrbumpn Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 worse case scenario- warped head I had the same issue with my step daughters inline 200 on her mustang, finally just lost compression in the rear 2 cylinders, and a second head gasket later- gave up on it, and didn't want to pay to have the head machined, so got a 289 instead RTV is a bad use for head gaskets Quote I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.
