The problem with over heating was fixed in 2002 and up models.Sorry for us with the older 2000 and 2001 models but i will give you a hint on what you need to do if you can If replacing the head gasket need be you have to turn the head over when its off and you will see 3 wholes in the bottom close to the valves on one side and none on the other you need to place the head gasket on the head and mark the holes on the other side.Then find a drill bit the size of that hole and carefully drill the otherside out but use extreme caution you do not drill to far you will feal the drill bit go threw and when it does that is all you need to do dont go any farther thru you will be in big trouble if you do and you will have to try and find anouther head then.But this is the issue with these heads on 00 and 01 models they have only 3 holes on one side.The 2002 and up models have six holes three on one side and three on the other.I know from experiance i studied this a couple days ago and had this problem now my car runs at the first temp line in the dash.Trust me drilling those holes will not ruin your head just be real carefull while doing it.
