Problems to get a MHG

[a_sesshoumaru]

Hi, i ask for help, i blew my head gasket, and where i live i only find OEM,
i want to buy a metal one but non of the stores i have visited on the internet take international credit cards. I think this problem should be solved for at least one of the stores here is supramania. i guess all foreing supra owners have the same problem.
Please help us.:1zhelp:

Do you have paypal? You can transfer money from your bank account to paypal, then pay with paypal

 

[a_sesshoumaru]

We dont have paypal here. (that sucks)

 

[Burntz]

Where do u want to order it from, im sure something can be done...i send things to nicaragua all the time so there must be a solution to ur problem.

How can you not have paypal, its a web based payment center. If you have a computer, you can have paypal.

 

[a_sesshoumaru]

cause i live in El Salvador, we don´t have paypal

Better question is do you have a machine shop capable of surfacing the block and head correctly for the Stopper as they're VERY unforgiving of finish.

i rebuilt it two month ago, and last week i blew my head gasket at 13 psi jejejej; it is surfaced properly

If it's surfaced properly why did it blow again?

 

[a_sesshoumaru]

because i upgraded my turbo to 55 trim and i had oem head gasket not metalic

That doesn't mean jack guy, sorry. Unless you were running 500 HP on that stock gasket and the head and block were flat and torqued to spec, then there was no reason for the gasket to blow unless you detonated, then you've probably got more problems than a simp BHG.

Edit: This post from you leads me to believe something you've been doing the entire time is very wrong: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showpost.php?p=605135&postcount=20

Its best you get the block and head deck checked out to see if they need machining and then you can decide what size head gasket thickness you need.

If you blew the head gasket again, that could mean that something was done incorrectly.

Yeah man, something is wrong.

Are you using ARP hardware? What are you torquing the bolts or studs to?

 

[jdub]

tte is on it...if your block/head is not in TRSM spec for flatness, there's not a head gasket (MHG or stock) that is going to seal properly.

If it's surfaced properly why did it blow again?

But as I said later Pass.....

Depends on what he torqued the bolts at, The stockers could have stretched or something. you never know. you're not supposed to reuse them btw. use arps this time around. Check to make sure the block isnt terrible while your at it
