As above, Inserts should have been part of the original casting with studs instead of bolts. Imagine a bullet proof N* for your Cadi 
Did Cadillac get over this Head Gasket problem in the 2000 N* redesign/2nd Generation business???
F*@%$! it, Buy a Reman motor for a late 90's Eldorado or STS and put it in? |
That's what I'm wondering about, can a late model (non HG prone) motor be put in the car without having fabrication / pcm issues?
Is the Eldo or STS less prone to HG issues? I assumed a N* is a N* in the 96-99 model range.
