(03-03-2020, 11:53 PM)AlanMcR I'm trying to visualize the stainless o-rings that you added. Seems like the head gasket would take up all of the potential space. Got a picture or reference?
Definitely, I took pictures of the o-ringing process. Maybe I should make a thread for it on it's own. It seemed to really help with keeping boost in even with just the composite gasket, although they just can't take the heat and pressure (for long anyways). Leaves a very clear imprint on the gasket when you pull it back apart again.
In the meantime before I upload pics, here's the guide I used for figuring out how to do it, how deep to set the groove, etc.
