[QUOTE="drewkeen, post: 10274929, member: 3676"] No they're not - they're actually pretty crappy. I have bought several 2.3t cars with blown head gaskets. Any time you want to make decent power you have to switch to the much stronger felpro 1035 head gasket. They are also notorious for cracked heads as well. Normally these cracks go outward from the valve seat and do not effect the engine at all. When they get bad you will usually start blowing a lot of white smoke out the exhaust from coolant. The head gasket is the more likely culprit in this case. Edit: Also, turboford.net is the place to go for these engine, a lot of smart and helpful guys over there. [/QUOTE]
