jrothe,

This engine section is sealed with a liquid gasket solution.

AFAIK if it is not done correctly--too much solution or sloppy application--the sealing liquid could clog the water orifices.

That the 2nd head failure occured very shortly after the installation of a new head should warrant an investigation to determine if that installation was done improperly and was the proximate cause of the subsequent failure.
