Looks like the "brand new" head gasket that I put on blew between the 2 and 3 cylinders. Near 0 compression on both. Any suggestions to keep me from re-visiting this problem again. It's gonna take some time to get this thing back on the road again anyway, so I'm not gonna mess around this time. In fact, I'm temped to go ahead and buy or build a stage 1 or 2 head for it and be done with it.

Head gasket suggestions...

OEM mitsu?
4 layer metal?
others?

TIA
Rob

if you count the time slip of my caring sitting for a the past 9months, I cant back anything up,

it takes time and money to go from stock to all out bad ass. I don't rush things or take shortcuts. I don't believe in stages, it's build it once, and then fix what breaks.

sure i'm runnin my mouth now, but it's all in good fun,

be patient, as soon as i'm finished with the car, I'll post timeslips.

and I should be putting more pictures on gallery soon too.
