Has anyone known of a HG failure after replacing the head gasket with the new type with the reinforced #6 position? If so, any details?

( i used green coolant, I will not use toyota red in my cruisers)...
and then I took my bet off the table. I use exclusively Toyo Red - both up in Connecticut where we're originally from and here in South Florida - you couldn't get two more extreme climates in the US - and it runs like new and clean. My point being that green or red, they're both excellent coolants but to be so adamant about one or the other is ignorant fodder at best.

While I do not own a engine with MLS head gasket and a total system design for toyota red ( As i beleive) but some day I will and at time I may again experement with the different coolants and see what results I may see and again make my choices.
