    being an aluminium head its very important to have it crack tested and also hardness tested, doesnt matter how flat or perfect the head looks if its gone soft the gasket will fail again before long

    I haven't had it hardness tested yet mate, yeah definitely will take both heads to the local head guy to have them hardness tested before either one of them going on the block again.

    Thanx.
