Hellion car blown head gasket

[Dennisn]

So what tipped you off on the head gasket. I'm afraid I might be lifting the heads under boost. Made a pass and there was coolant everywhere on drivers side. Cleaned everything up, Ran for half an hour with no leaks........ made a partial pass maybe 660' and checked and still bone dry. Made a full pass and same as first, Coolant everywhere on drivers side.

I started loosing coolant and it was rough to start so i pulled the plug and had fluid ontop the piston

Did you ever figure out the cause of the blown head gasket ?
15 psi and E85 doesn't sound that aggressive unless you had too much timing or a fuel system problem.

We did try runnin it on 18lbs. I think thats what did it. Since we put it back together with the new springs head studs and cometic gaskets i havemt had a problem. Maxing out at 15lbs
