I’ve seen some with cracks between valves and a couple times at the injector hole, but all had over 500k miles on em. Maybe improper torque sequence or maybe debris on the deck surface?

I've seen plenty that had cracked, like you said, usually between the valve seats, or between the 2 exhaust valves after high hp horrible (big-name delete tuning) programming was installed.

Even saw some pictures of one that the deck was not cleaned properly too. The same hack-job idiots used some kind of rtv on the chineese knock-off head gasket to boot.

I think even snail-express lost an engine (not the head though) due to some morons using rtv where they shouldn't have once -- could have very well been the same outfit.

You like to put some salt on wounds :big_smile2:
