Once you get the headstud situation sorted out, you'd be well served to upgrade to a front mount cooler. For a 2.4 you'd be fine with just later model (SC/Carrera) oil lines and a trombone. Heat + mag case = sig decreased lifespan. Keep that motor cool and it will live a long, happy life. The pulled headstuds on the 2.7's could be easily attributed to cooling issues that were most exacerbated by the thermal reactors, which I surmise is why you don't see pulled studs on the earlier cars.
