soak is related only when engine really is overheated
that is why the manuals on cars tell you not to turn off engine that over heats (unless must) it tells you to idle it and see if gage drops. if yes do that. if not?, not.
so the soak does not go so high it warps the head.
but that assumes some water remains in the block , sometimes none is there NOW, like a lower rad hose blew up and all coolant is now gone. (cut key me)
what fails matter always. parked or at 80MPH up will towing 1000lbs or bricks.
