I wish I knew. I was rolling onto the gas to merge with traffic in 4th gear, maybe built 5 psi and then all of a sudden I was running on 2 cylinders.
My guess is that the gasket blew but then I tried limping it to Twacks so I didn't have to tow it or anything. With the combustion trying to go through where the gasket went, it probably took some of the head with it.
I will say though that Twack is the man for helping me with this. We compression tested it, diagnosed a head gasket, and then we got the whole thing apart in a little under 2 hours. If the head would've been fine we would've gotten my car together and to the cookout no problem.
