probably ?! the trouble seamed to be that for some random reason the thermostat got stuck shut ! the temps sky rocketed but when i stop the rad was stone cold. and still had a large amount of water still in it. i had only just got the car back together after changing my turbo gasket and manifold again, and its been running for only 2 days. i wasnt even driving the car above 3k for the entire journy when i left bournemouth last night |

yeah, thats what having a stuck shut thermostat will do, as it blocks the water flow into the rad until operating temp. sounds like you've cooked it mate

might be worth getting the head checked to see if its warped aswell. What gasket did you have? |

i may look at the main tuners gaskets even tho they are double or triple the money, the likes of hks or trust and may be a bit thicker too |

yeah good point as i guess if the head is warped you may need a fair old skim so the gasket would make up for it

I had a 1.8mm Trust HG on mine with only 300BHP and it went. If you're going to get a decent HG then I would also get ARP head bolts and re-torque them after a few hundred miles to prevent it happening again. Bad luck Dude - been there myself (and gave up)... |

In all fairness Steve, I think my HG failure was due to me not replacing the radiator with a more suitable high performance one ![]() Have a word with the big power boys on SXOC and see what they're running. Bren or Jez Horsham, or Gary@APT ? |
