"I built a
supercharged KA24DE but blew the head gasket on the dyno"

Wow, that header got HOT...!!! you only blew a head gasket??? All the blown
headgaskets I've experienced resulted in coolant going in the cylinders and
a whole bunch of steam coming out the pipe - never seen heat like that
except on a turbo going lean - usually right before the kaboom...! <:-o

What do you attribute the hot header to, and was everything ok inside?
