Factory head gaskets allow the "sweet" smell requiring pulling heads/hopeful tune remedy. Blowing out any HG in these engines is either age or tune. Mostly it's a tune issue.

I swapped out my first head gasket due to age. it was ok until it let go. there where early signs of small film of oil on the block stamp section. one day just went. it pretty much broke trying to remove it.

lsejnoha - you will find this forum to be incredibly helpful, but you will also find people with vast knowledge that have no patience for people that are just starting out with one of these cars and start out asking the typical questions that new modders always ask. Some of these people are a turnoff (especially the ones that are PWI - posting while intoxicated), but if you can ignore the negative comments and stroke their ego a bit you'll get some really valuable info. Any time you post a question for modding advice, the two most basic things you need to include are your specific goals and your budget. How will the car be driven? Will it be tracked? What are your "driveability" goals - specifically, what do you want the car to be able to DO, don't just post some random horsepower number.

Also, you should really include your location under your username (so that if you live in a place with inspections, people can warn you what not to do, or direct you to a vendor in your part of the world), and you should create a "signature" with the basic details of your car so that people don't need to ask what year your 951 is, and any other modifications that it already has. There are significant differences between some years.
For what it's worth, I already answered all of this stuff for the exact same guy, on Facebook's 951 page. Either he's trolling or needs to man up and make a decision already. Either way, I suspect the latter, not that I disagree with the premise of your post.

Went though his posts and all ask the same thing and all lead to the same path. Not sure if he reads the posts.
