its an aftermarket head, slightly ported and polished.

The pics you posted on Facebook showed more than a little port/polish. That head looked gorgeous.

Ooh, is it a custom cast or just a modded stock head? Would like to know more about this.

So basically you fucked the head, and have decided that a stock head with more boost will fix the issue. It makes sense and I understand it but just saying it sounds silly lol.

Dam. Cracks? Or Serious Destruction? Or Both?

So the head gurdle thing didn't really work or was it due to other issues?

I didn't know you can still order factory heads, I am looking for to pictures of the factory head.

my guess is that the job we did on it.. didnt left so much material left.. and when these heads are welded they tend to twist a bit.. and so did this one.. the hening we did of the camshaft bearing sections wasent enough "probably" so when it got warm it cracked.

the girdle wasent there..i didnt got the longer head bolts that i needed for this.

i got hold of an aftermarket head from italy.. says that the material in this one should be better then the original..

im posting frekvent updates on my facebook page. its so much easier when i got all my stuff in my iphone.

the new head wont be ported as the old one was.. we are just gonna better up the finish.. and then increase the boost map in the ecu to 53psi.. and aim for that.
