First this is a gas engine, it won't be seeing 18:1 compression. I've melted pistons with too much boost, and blown head gaskets, my now reused for the 4th time ARP head BOLTS have never been a problem, and I would be STUNNED if they ever were.

We apply power to the ground with FIVE studs, but you think a head is going to pop off with SEVENTEEN bolts holding it on per side? Excuse me while I masturbate the air. And sorry for not patting you on the back to assit you in justifying your investment.

The Snake is running a roots blower, meaning, it won't see 13lbs of boost. My motor is seeing 13 lbs of boost, same basic engine, with never a head bolt issue. Now excuse me while I go respond to the massive amounts of threads where people are having engine issues due to head bolts.
