In an article on building magnum V8 engines, Mopar Action, Feb 2014, Rick Ehrenberg tech editor says:
“Most, if not all, of the magnum V8 Heads castings, with anything over 50-75K miles, will have cracks in the exhaust seat. True, the magnum typically don’t go to water (leak coolant into the chambers) until 150K plus and a high percentage never do.”
In the magnum V8 build, Ehrenberg junked original magnum V8 heads without checking them, and ordered new heads
Are the original magnum V8 heads that bad?
What is your experience with the durability of these magnum V8 engines 1992-2003?
Thanks, Ben
