made over 400 on pump gas on a d series with a cometic gasket a couple weeks ago. my car makes 800-900 or so, 50psi of boost, on a cometic gasket. its not the gaskets fault.

Its not Cometics fault, 2000hp Domestic's dont like to run them because their motors explode before the headgasket fails on nitrous and turbo setups because they seal/hold so well, I am sure they are satisfactory for your little D series.

Nitrous cars don't blow head gaskets, they melt ****.

Yeah, thats the thing, people hear, and then they assume, then they drag a company threw dirt.

I have used cometic headgaskets and never once had an issue with one.
