How common is head gasket failure on a B23F? 200

posted by  someone claiming to be John McPhail on  Wed Sep 26 21:10 CST 2012 [RELATED]

Is head gasket failure a given due to the different rates of expansion of the cast iron block and alloy head, or is this only a problem if the engine is repeatedly overheated?
