    Looked like the SAI casting was different.

    Yes that removal should be accounted for in gasket thickness. Look up and see if Felpro makes a headgasket for your engine. Or Maybe Mahle. I believe the Felpro's can be slightly thicker.

    Most likely 1/8" BSPT

    Can confirm 1/8 BSPT. When I tee'd mine for the oil feed, I had gotten an adapter fitting from Pegasus Racing. Put my OEM switch on the end, and used the side NPT fitting for the oil feed. Not a single issue.

    Here's the exact product I used: https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/productdetails.asp?RecID=11217

    Well, I developed a pretty good exhaust leak. I think it's right where the header meets the downpipe. Sounds kinda like a wet fart really. https://youtu.be/XX1nDaAduEU

    How many miles on that head gasket?

    It looks like cylinder to cylinder wear.

    115k miles. Would that indicate other issues or just also gasket failure between the cylinders?

    Hard to tell exactly from the photo. Just looks like the rubberized coating, (from the bottom of the photo up) on the 2nd cylinder, had blown out between the cylinder to water ports. Which could explain pressurizing the coolant system. Possibly between cylinders as well. However, during the removal process, that could have come off as well.

    Does anyone know what these are? They came out of the cylinder head on my way to take it to have it resurfaced today. Deer ran out in front of me and i had to slam on the brakes and things went everywhere. Found these in the bed after the fact.. :oops:
