Yep not a huge rattle but enough at that cylinder pressure to lift the head and scour the Viton and leak combustion pressure into the cooling system.

This is what happened to my headgasket a week or so ago. Least, thats what my mechanic believed happened.

Had a custom made 2mm cometic stopper w/ arp studs and it let go @ 18psi on a 57 trim ct. Head/Block were checked and stuff when the headgasket was put on.

Ummm Cometic isn't a "Stopper"...

The HKS Stopper uses an extra layer that wraps around the inner fire-ring layer.
