Blown Head Gasket, never been so happy!!!
Coming home from a car show last month, my Temp was rising on the freeway. Got home and the Radiator was gushing Coolant.. Did the Gasket liquid test and It's blown...
Good thing is I get to build a motor!!! Starting off with a 2000 Windsor (Not Romeo) 4.6L 8 Bolt block w PI heads.. Looking forward to having a fully forged Vortech Supercharged stang... Pics and story to come!

LOL, thanks! I'll be sure to update this Thread as we progress... It might take a while because now I want a Stroker 4.6 to 5.0! That means more money... but more power!

The wheels are finally in motion..
Block was dropped off at MMR to be cleaned, bored and honed.. Picking up a 900stroker kit for the block. Next stop is either to do a Stage 3 port job on the stock PI heads or to buy Trickflow.. Haven't decided what to do. Does anyone know if the Stage 3 PI heads hold up? I read Stage 2 don't. I missed this years SALEEN show but I'll be ready for next years..
