i had a customer bring me a pair of 3.0l heads a couple of days ago to magna-flux them and check them for cracks. after putting them in the spray off and then air drying them it was apparent they were no good:icon_rofl:

we did magna flux them just for grins and FWIW the combustion chambers had no cracks:icon_thumby:
 
I've seen cracks in the chambers before, but never that. How in the heck does that happen?
 
I see no problem here... :dunno:
It'll last another 100k before anything bad happens. :icon_rofl:
 
first two replies are really not helpful to noone and not really funny. Some people really want honest answers to simple questions.
Can the sarcasm hold off until the question is answered in a helpful manner? Then all the comedians can chime in with their witty replies.
Just my opinion..................

you serious!?

the question itself was sarcasm. :thefinger:
 
Yea, I wouldn't waste any time or material looking for cracks. The eyeball seems to be good enough.
 
2 passes with a hot glue gun and it'd be as good as new, maybe 3 passes if you have some time on your hands
 
Ooo oo oo....... Jb weld.....

that's not how we operate here. we are all experts on this site and knew that the head was cracked just by reading the name of the thread, pictures were not necessary

Oh good, someone who knows all of us and our humor on their first post.

EDIT: Wait........ are you the guy that took them in for Magna-fluxing?
