NO, I guess the water freezing inside the head made it warp, and the material was under strain and wanted to go off in to different directions, well as soon as I unbolted it, it did what it wanted to, I mean the head according to a square was still flat, but it only takes thousands of an inch to ---- a head up, exhaust and coolant leaked out between the head and the block on the passenger side when the car was warm.
