That's a bit funny. They're normally straight between the valves.

Here we go again lol who is gona be first to bite then place your bets

[TonyN]

Thats a very unusual place to crack, it's always where the other have said, between the valves.

If I had to guess I'd say it was an uprated head that has got frigging hot and just cracked there. There is no way an original head wouldn't have cracked in the weak spot bewteen the valves before cracking across the face like that.

The 3.0's sometimes crack like that.

I must admit Tony yes it got frigging hot I honestly thought it was gona shoot the engine out the bay when it boiled over it was like a whistling kettle for ages. I am also inclined to agree that it wasn't a standard head plus it had been skimmed I didn't think you could skim the 2.4head???? Ive never had it skimmed so looks like the previous owner from 6years ago had head pronlems Either way I'm happy I found the source of my troubles at last
