no. but i have a huntch as to what happened. its pretty clear that the gaskets on it are new....im thinking that he filled the coolant with water to save money...it froze, expanded...boom crack...he replaced gaskets hopping it would fix it and when it didnt, wanted to trade. looking for a new head now, idk to buy a used or brand new.

Good deal!! I'm not saying this is the best way to flush a crank case. But I use Dextron ATF to flush any contaminants out of the crank case. Running until the engine is warm......The high detergent will clean it up, then drain and fill with motor oil. One cycle is all it takes.
