Cracks around sparkplugs

As a result, compression loss. Head otherwise fine, no burned valves. Can this be fixed?

Ask a local machine shop. The head might be repairable.

But why bother. You have lots of spares. just replace it with a good one you have in stock. worry about fixing that one later. Get the car back on the road faster that way.....*8-}

Once it's cracked, it will crack again. Right next to the once fixed crack.

Repairing them "the right way" is expensive and will not producxe a lasting solution to the problem.

Small cracks are acceptable, and will not affect the way the engine runs. Ok to use in stock engines.

Easy fix: swap them in on rebuilt heads. ;^p ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"
