Re: Pushing coolant... New L19's or ring head

I second motors by gosh.

I just put l19's in my new motor I am building along with a fel pro 1153-1 headgasket. I have not ran the engine, so I cannot comment on the gaskets actual performance, but I can tell you this thing is friggin impressive. 5 layers with 3 firing rings per cylinder. The rubber coating is so stickey, just holding the gasket, it sticks to your fingers. The center layer is very thick with the biggest firing ring. Apparentley it was built for Rau? and from what I have researched, it almost indestructable with l19's

The l19's are equally impressive. As I torqued the head down, I was amazed at how much harder I had to pull on the torque wrench compared to standard arps. There is no stretch as you reach the torque, just rock solid.
