Look...all they are is crucjed up walnut hulls with a collant reactive sand. Forms a hard seal when it been liquified and then exposed to air.
Millions and millions of GM engineers and cars all ove the world can't be wrong.
But that's IMHO

I consider it a band aid for a leak...wouldn't you agree?

Well it's band aid for a leak that you can't find...or a leak that you don't know you have....such as a mysterious lack of coolant.

I just changed my water pump gaskets. Been noticing a leak for about a year or so now finally found it a couple weeks ago during an oil change. I went ahead and changed the pump while I was at it since I have 161,000 miles on it, better safe than sorry.

There is a new bulletin out about the heads cracking arond the head bolt holes. The coolant mixes in with the oil, and it get all cruddy up in the valve covers.
