What sort of thing will blow a head gasket? I'm wondering if I did something to cause it...

Edit....Never mind the question..I googled it and found answers. It had over heating problems before but not as bad as now. I did over heat it badly in June on a trip back from Sacramento to Auburn...long up hill all the way on a very hot day. It also used to back fire thru the carb before the new carbs were installed. Just dunno why the leak down would not have shown this ?
