Thanks guys!
looks good..
Any updates?
Looks legit. I see you went the o-ring route. I just finished doing one the same minus the sweet coated pistons. Hard to believe how much .005 of push against the gasket helps
is that block fire ringed?
O-ringed. Fire ring has a groove machined into the block & the head. O-ring is just what you see in the pic there.
Whats the advantages/disadvantages of both?

The way Guy explained it to me was the fire ring method has a groove in both surfaces and there's a ring that sits in the groove. You then get a head gasket that goes outside the ring and the ring keeps the fire away from the gasket.
O-ring has a .035 groove in the block and uses a .040 wire like you see in the bag in the picture. That method uses a regular head gasket and just has extra pressure right where the fire ring sits. Both are supposed to hold up well with high hp and boost.
As far as disadvantages I wouldn't know any. I think anything you can do to keep from having to tear a fully built motor apart is a no-brainer
