Head gasket PM
Just a thought.
Given: The 12V engines are known to suffer from head gasket failures that may be related to the cheap/assembly-line-friendly stretch bolts.
Hypothesis: On a non-leaking engine could you replace the head studs with Raceware studs without changing the gasket as a sort of preventive maintenance.
