We have made 730whp at 40psi on the stock gasket. I run a cometic now. O-ringing is not needed at these power levels.

I am with Aaron (JB). Modified stock or Cometic. I ran the PE and it failed on me... Cometic is on my car now.

Proper tuning is the key to HG life when the HG is installed correctly.

+1 Keeping peak * low (around 0) will help keep cylinder pressure low and keep your HG happy
