What's your idea on my MD head?

Utahsandman · Jan 7, 2017

This is the second head I've had checked for MD restoration. It has less of a crack than the first but my question is:
Is this crack in the water jacket?
If it's not in the water jacket should I just use the head the way it is?

You need to take that head to a good machine shop that can pressure test it for leaks . The best is a a pressure tester that can run hot water through the head ,while on the test stand and then pressure test. most of those shops can repair the cracks & test again. We only have one shop here in Central Illinois that can do that.

Thank you! I tried to post pictures but something went wrong. I posted them in the next post if you want to look.
