Soo, I am going to be doing a driveway handbomb headgasket change on the 96, noticed coolant in the oil a couple days ago. My first day off in 3 months, and now this. I want to use a 20 over cummins marine gasket, hoping that it will hold better than the std one. Will this gasket make it haze? It runs super clean right now, don't really want to ruin that. Could I run thinner injector washers to help get rid of potential haze with a thicker gasket? Thinking of getting studs instead of headbolts, how much torque can be put on the A1 headstuds? I just want the darn thing to not leak, its at an estimated 250 rwhp, maybe a little more, by the ole SOP meter. I don't plan on turning it up any, but I'd like to be able to use the fuel I have now.
