Steel dissipates heat at different rates (slower) than aluminum, so your engine runs hotter. You'll also have potential trouble with head gaskets. This isn't an issue when they're used in race engines since those are rebuilt more often than a street engine.
But if I'm having to rebuild every 4 yrs, maybe I have a race engine.
I would just like to know if it was something I did or if there was an error made assembling last time. The #6 cyl was good and that's the one that always fails.
