Heads may not be fucked. This happens to heaps of Suby heads.

I work on a limit of 3-4 threads down into the plug hole, more than that & I reckon it's a problem, less than that & they're good to go.

I always knock the lumps off around the plug holes - those ridges cause hot sopts which cause the cracks, remove them & polish over the area & the problem goes away. Removing the ridges usually gets rid of about 50% of the crack & the rest won't go anywhere once the hot spot is removed.
