    Just monitor it dude...

    If you have an adjustable FPR or FMU then start it rich, and keep taking fuel out until it stops smoking black under throttle. You should be ok.
    Also, dont run too much timing, until you get it dynoed. Just check the spark plugs to make sure they are not white. (lean)

    Its not the boost that will blow head gaskets. Its improper tuning. But, if this does happen, consider it a good time to put on better heads. And then you could get them o-ringed too.
