What do you mean by the motor being stuffed? I have never heard that term before.

if you can describe your motor, or post a picture of it, then we can help.Without knowing what motor is in the car though, it is quite difficult.

djturbo look on the cars identification number plate. Its on the firewall under the hood. This well have the engine series on it. It will probable start with CA or SR.

The head gasket keeps on blowing

this says detonation to me, but Im not sure.... exactly what specifications are you looking for? are we talking timing specs or things like flow rates and volumetric efficiency?

also...with a KA24DE it sounds like you have a USA spec car can you get ahold of a Chiltons Manual? That should help a lot.

you can get them here

the manafold also keeps on blowing

what exactly do you mean by this...

Use a copper gasket on the exhaust manifold.

the headgasket is blowing due to one of a few things.1. crank walk2. horrible timing causing detonation3. wrong gasoline causing detonation4. low fuel pressure causing detonation
