    Blown head gasket have a few questions

    i got ARP Head Studs, i told them to torque it to 82ft lbs. and they did. they even did the re-torque job after the 500 mile break in period :D they treat me right and i keep going back to them. and no, the guy didn't get fired. he has even done work for free for me. its a one of a kind shop IMO.
