checked my water last night and im getting oil in the water again, so the head is definatly porous. anybody know where theres a coscast head going?
It can still happen to coscast ones and the prices heads are doing at the minute you may aswell do the porous mod on yours (which i thought was done when head gasket was???)

Might as well buy a full xe as pay for a cos cast last one I sold made £350 on gaybay
porous mod is easy and cheap, why would you pay absolutely horrific money for a coscast?
and technically its isnt porous lol , its cracks haha ,
but yeah just sleave it and you will be fine, always makes me laugh how much coscast heads go for , some time i think i should sell mine lol

tried but we couldnt get the grubscrew out, i guess ill just have to drill it and re-tap it
Yeah,but try an easy out 1st and then just buy a new grubscrew
