[QUOTE="Bean, post: 214232, member: 318"] Wish everyone would have posted this sooner, but does kinda make me feel better I was starting to think a 6.0 was impossible to keep a gasket in. We started using all VR gaskets over a year ago maybe even further back due to a couple with OEM gaskets blowing on hotter trucks. Seemed to fix the problem so been using them ever since. Seems like we have not had issues until recently, keep getting more and more coming back pukin their guts out. We always surface the heads and most of the time replace them due to cracking. Block deck is cleaned and check for straightness and tq specs followed to a T, blowing gaskets on trucks that are barely more then stock. So here is the other kicker, got one in that someone else had done studs and gaskets on it and was puking. They used one VR gasket and one OEM, guess witch one blew... We have one other that we did the same way as a test to see if that truck ever came back witch gasket would be blown. Well its puking again we just have not got it back yet to tear it down. It was a brand new short block and brand new heads so no issues there with cleaning or surface. We checked them both with a straight edge as we do all of them. When we get that one back in I will report the results. [/QUOTE]
