Why do you want to o-ring the block? Getting it right is extemely difficult. Run some A1 headstuds and a Felpro MLS gasket if you are worried about sealing.

I run 32 psi on a stock headgasket and regular ARPs. It sounds like you had tuning issues likely. The headgasket acts like a fuse and will blow while hopefully saving the internals. I used a cometic HP and it actually melted the head on the dyno before it let go.
