Ah, so much less of a pain in the toot than the down time and cost of machining.

Heck, that's only double what a factory gasket costs. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Eliminate blown head gaskets with this assembly, and no machining of the head of block needed. Works well with programmers and in-line modules. Keeps you truck from whistling like a tea kettle. If you run over 30 Psi of boost then this is what you need!
Applications: 2003-2006 Ford F-Series pickup and Excursion with 6.0L Power Stroke diesel.
Do-it-yourself installation instructions included.

I will say this as I have before, stock MLS gaskets with studs AND proper surfaces on the deck and head will hold just about anything you throw at it, infact I have yet to hear of anyone blowing a hg with that combo. There are a few that had leaky gaskets and then just put in studs and still puke a tiny bit but it went from gallons of puking down to a quart or so and if they chaged the gasket and surfaced the head it would puke 0. MLS gaskets are strong stuff, if you want stronger you need a reciever groove and a ring that cant move.

Not saying hmax has bad stuff just that IMO isnt needed.

The only shirtcut option is to replace the bolts with studs without doing the gaskets, there is no other shortcut. If you do gaskets you need the head checked for flatness and all surfaces cleaned or it wont work.
