The leak down test pushes air from one side to the other and then out the exhaust of the other cylinder. Yup, I think the shim or gasket has failed.

I took out a shim on my Nytro. I bought that sled with the turbo installed already as a quick fix after my other one got stolen. I think the previous owner ran crappy gas. The shim failed right between two of the cylinders. Does anybody make a stainless shim for that motor?
