To do it the right way , you want to go GTE head gasket , I will be putting out 7psi and Im guess 300-350 , I really just want a fun DD , until I decide to install GTE and 6spd but Im in no rush , I would do what ever your pockets will allow ..... Either way you will have a fun ride !

More pics up , now to find out why she is running Rich at idle , I guess I may have to invest in a standalone , I was hoping to do this a budget build without standalone and fuel .. ANY advice ?
