Josh, I'm betting the intake gaskets combined with the ARP bolts were the contributors.
I still cannot believe the whole thing with the Halon bottle. You spent a lot of time working closely to that grenade - go get yourself a lottery ticket!! Like I said, mine will be "carefully" removed from the boat and disposed of. I'll probably move to a Sea-Fire FM 200 automatic or something similar. Glad you and everyone else made it through unscathed!
On a related note, I couldn't find the color guide for the white gelcoat. Best bet will be to take a damaged piece and look to make a mix that closely matches. Glass Dave might have some further guidance.
