Ok, got word back from Tom (Charlesworth, my mechanic) a few minutes ago, and he said he's suprised the head gasket hadn't failed way before it did. He said it was the worst looking one he'd seen, and it crumbled to pieces while holding it in his hands. Everything looks ok, but we're going to go ahead and have the head ported and decked (bringing compression up to about 8.25:1).

Well, I'm really not sure, but my guess is Autothority. There are no obvious names on the chips, and I haven't felt like bothering to try and track them down. Looking at the previous A/F curve though, it looks very similar to other Autothority graphs I've seen.
