Repeated head failure

Repeated head failure
Here is my problem,
My engine let go a couple of weeks ago due to my vortech running too much boost and improper tune.
The head (cyl. 1,2,3,4) had to be replaced. The dealer installed a brand new one. Well, it lasted about 5 minutes…. It looks like the oil isn’t getting to that head.
The dealer has no idea what the problem is. They are talking to Ford engineering about it.
Any ideas?
I got a feeling I’ll be cruising in my Corolla this summer….. (maybe I should have put my vortech on it)

RE: Repeated head failure
I would be very leary of running more than 8 psi boost on anything but a built up motor in these new cars. Too much boost and/or improper tuning seems to be the root of alot of blown 3V engines........especially on centrifugal blowers.
