just .030" over, bake and magnaflux… I decided against Oringing it because people have been making reliable power (700 rwhp!!!) on STOCK head gaskets, so with my metal one, i should be OK. I also had headwork done, the rotating assy was balanced, the crank was polished, it cam knife edged and radiused from nissan, a valve job, a new oil pump drive put on and some combustion chamber work. I don’t have a truck, so i havent been able to pick it up… and i still need to get shit painted…

The official list of parts going into it is:

wiseco pistons  
pauter rods  
jun oil pump  
jun main studs  
jun valve guides  
jun crank drive collar  
tomei cams (270 x 10.25 )  
tomei solid lifters  
tomei head gasket (stock thickness)  
tomei adjustable cam gears (5 bolt)  
hks valve seals  
ferrea double valve springs  
ferrea titanium retainers  
ferea titanium valve seats  
OEM valves  
NIMO water pump  
Power enterprise F1 black metal bearings  
Power enterprise timing belt  
ARP head studs  
OEM tensioners

also being used:  
exeddy triple plate clutch  
AEM EMS  
my Garrett GT3040r is blown up and STILL needs to be rebuilt…  
i think that is about it.

all this pushing on the RB equivalent of the stock 240 tranny and differential. I need to be gentle.
