How can you not trust pressure paper results? There is really no way to "rig" that test. Not to mention the thousands of satisfied customers that purchase their headgaskets every year. If I had one complaint about their head gaskets, it would be that they don't have a fire ring built into it. Other than that they are grea and I had no issue with mine sealing at all.

You have to have faith in a company you trust, and in the automotive industry trust is earned then comes faith. That faith could fall at anytime or be further strengthened by tests as such.
I don't know what you get from the test but what i get, is when i bolt the head back down the first time on a freshly decked block and head, it's gonna have a better seal with the cosworth gasket. I haven't replaced my personal head gasket, because i fight detonation with a vengeance.I have replaced head gaskets were detonation is clearly evident, on every single gasket ever made.
I'm looking for a company that makes a detonation resistant gasket made from aluminum, copper and titanium. or adamantium

Why would you want it detonation resistant blindly? Wouldn't that just result in more components being ruined since the blown gasket will no longer be there to relieve the pressure of the detonation?
