Got an XT that just after a minute or two running its putting pressure in the cooling system, have a antifreeze jug as a catch can - and it spits into there pretty good,, Im guessing its the head gasket, any other options ? Does anyone make an all copper head gasket better than Agco ? This has the 450 injector pump head and pushing a lot of fuel

I have MLS head gaskets and drop on fire rings, or fire rings for cut sleeves. A 301 with a 450 pump would definitely blow a stock gasket.

426 valves, pull the sleeves, cut for rings and notch for clearance.
