Re: car overheats

I am pretty sure the HG is the problem. I might pull the thermostat out and drop it into boiling water to see if it opens to see if it is fine, but I am planning on replacing the HG anyways since it was blown out the 2ng pull. We torqued the head studs to 95 try to seal it again. It holds during boost, but I am guessing it still might be the problem. My brother said there was white stuff coming up with the filler cap off so I am pretty sure it is the HG. I am going to make sure the head isn't warped before I put it back on to make sure it isn't the reason it blew out in the first place. The car was tuned pretty good so I have no idea how it blew out in the first place.

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.
