Be careful with the Cometics. I know of 6 people with the head gaskets
leaking coolant. I'll email you the custom part number for which they
were specifically designed for the Magnum Engines.

True, nothing is totally bulletproof. But the cometics will definitely
hold up better than the stockers. I don't plan on runnin any kind of
crazy boost anyway...yet ;) But by the time I'm ready to run crazy
boost, the rest of the engine will be able to handle it.
