Really? I always heard that you couldn't put alloy heads on boat v8's because they'd rust away in no time. ??

That's because you're thinking about putting alloy heads on an iron block. This ends up with dielectric corosion of. If the whole water path is alloy or you add something like a magnesium sacraficial anode I see no reason for corrosion problems.

There's a certain combination you can't install copper gaskets in (mainly head-gaskets I think) as it corrodes aluminium very badly in some circumstances. I think it may be iron block / alloy head(s) . . Confused
