Cracked Head or not?

[hope401]

Can anyone help?
Just acquired a 1994 3.0 ltr KZN130 with a blown head gasket. (got thick white smoke and coolant splurting out the radiator filler on idle and cold) Do these suffer at all from cracked heads like the 2.4 LN130's? And where can i get head torque settings and procedure from? Cheers

the 3.0ls can have the heads go the same as the 2.4's.do a search for head torque settings.
you can buy a block and head testing kit from ebay for about £20 if you want to check before stripping it all down

the block testers are the best way to find out , even the 3lts crack if overheated

pity you didn't post earlier as i have a tester here , but had a beer and doing the roast now

Ok. Thanks for that. At least i know now.
Will probably remove the head to find out for sure anyway.
Cheers for your help.
