I do a lot of 6.0L ford heads for a nearby performance shop, custom vavle job, porting, and decking. Any way I have seen that every set of heads that come in needs at least half of the ex. seats replaced due to cracks but in general one third to half of the heads are cracked so bad that they can't be reused generally between between the injector and ex. seats. These are of running trucks to! But to solve the head gasket problems we groove the heads for o-rings and they hold up even in the engines with tuners and custom turbos. If you don't like the chevys get a dodge cummins won't be as quick empty but loaded it will out pull the 6.0L and last forever.
