Thats nicely cracked & just how I'd expect frozen coolant to kill a block tbh.
Anti-freeze is essential all year roundat the correct concentration. As Mowgli hinted on, it stops corrosion which includes the alloy of the head face & the gasket itself. Usually the 1st to go.
that does look pretty bad , what car was that in burgo ?
Mate of mine did that to an XE n his munta
Ive Seen A Rs Turbo Block Do The Same Before,unlucky Dude,ive Also Had To Defrost My Mates Cav Td Which Even Though I Blagged Him For Weeks To Put Antifreeze In After I Replaced A Bust Hose He Didnt,cost Him A Good Days Wage He Was Gutted
that was the estate engine.
