This is a single overhead cam, 5.4L Triton engine from a 1997 Ford F150.  Notice the heavy sludge accumulation shown in the picture.  People, warm your engine to operating temperature before leaving the house and CHANGE YOUR OIL ON TIME!  This engine only had 52,000 miles on it.  What a waste.

This is a cylinder head removed from a 2000 Chevrolet Malibu after diagnosis of a blown head gasket.  The cause of the head gasket failure is indicated by the lightning bolt.  In a word, Dexcool.  This was GM's first attempt at an environmentally-friendly antifreeze coolant.  The components of Dexcool break down, forming a blockage in the cooling system.  There are several pending lawsuits.  For more information, visit http://www.girardgibbs.com/dexcool.html.
