Head gasket
 

hey everyone, i have a ca18det 200sx, basicall. i took the engine out to do the crank bearings and everything went well, drove it for about three days and my head gasket went, because a hose had snagged, must have been when i was workin on it, so anyway, i got the head skimmed professionally, did the head gasket and off i went, now 5,000 miles later the headgasket is gone again???

is this because maybe the top end of the engine is also warped, what could it be???

i'm thinkin of droppin an sr20det engine in instead because they're a more reliable stronger engine, and easy to swap, can anyone give me feed back of any sort on the old engine, would like to sort it out if its possible

if not maybe some advice on the swap??.....

thanks everyone
