Default Broke Into the 11's, Blew a Head Gasket

I went to HRP Friday night and made 1 pass. The car was running strong until about the 1000 ft. mark and the head gasket blew and I immediately felt the car sliding around and had to let out before I lost it. Needless to say, I shut the track down for 20-30 min. (yeah that was me, the *** in the orange camaro that made everyone wait), but I still managed to run a 11.04 @ 121 letting out about 200-300 feet short of the traps. Now its time to pull that bitch out and forge it so I can add more spray Here's a copy of the time slip.

Yeah, its cold fusions 150 pills (which they say is rated at rwhp) but i've sprayed it before with those pills, I just finally got the tune right and now this, but that's the way it goes. I'll find out today when I tear it down and maybe then I'll know more.

Yea that sucks good luck. I was running like a 130rwhp shot earlier this year but then the stupid 4l60e wouldnt make the 2-3 shift. I might be upping the shot so im hoping it doesnt blow anything. I also have the hsw standalone so that might make it alittle easier on things im as im running straight 116.
