I'd also like to mention that I've got in between 9k and 10kmi. on this
particular
set of (4) Hayes o-rings.  Ed's right on the stiffness factor; we had to use
alot
of pookey (technical term for Hylomar) when we were building this last
engine
back in February to get them to stay in the grooves.  I haven't had a single
instance of problem concerning coolant contamination and/or burning water
out the exhaust.  I've also got a setup that's producing well into the mid
300bhp's at the high-end of the RPM curve so I've got an excuse.  =)

I believe these to be definitely worth the money.

BTW Francesco Ianetti told me the o-rings start to leak
at 55 psi boost no matter what :-)
