RE: Picco 26 Max....the DARK SIDE....
Kliff...sorry, I forgot to ask.
How is the extra head gasket making the engine run cooler. I would think all it is doing is creating more separation between the engine block and the head. If this is so, the engine would be at the same 'high' heat and the head would not be getting that transfer of heat (which is what you want for cooling). So what I would think is the temp gauge is getting a false engine temp and getting a cooler head temp instead. And the head is doing a worse job of pulling the heat out of the engine block because there is less heat transfer. In other words, our temp readings may be 250deg, but the engine block may still be creating 280deg which would diminish engine life without us knowing it.
Sorry...physics courses coming into play here....tell me I'm wrong.
