I was told, "head gaskit was blowen, over pressured coolant jackets, cracked the block."
I would think he had to run a lot of boost, but then I would think radiator cap would vent pressure out.

I wonder if it made a noticeable amount of power having the crank molested like that. Sure as **** didn't help in the longevity aspect of things
