the one time a blown head gasket is better...

LOL! Yeah, it's only money. But it could have been a bit less money had you bought the injectors in the first place. :laugh: It's all torn down now, so here's your chance to do it right from the get-go. :cool:

i just need another year out of this engine, then its a new Boss block with 20psi. I run 10-15 psi in this one (major boost creep, wastegates are at 9psi). I don't worry much about it, I just drive it hard and enjoy it. I went a year and a half with no tune at all, no idea what my air/fuel was, but i tell you it was a fun 10k miles! let me put it this way,

460 ft-lbs of torque+3400 lbs with driver and full fluids +3.73 gears +245/45/17 tires= long strips at 65mph.

the good news is the heads are being repaired, i hope to have the car ready for all-ford carlisle.
