The pre 1991 2.0 litre N/A version is theoretically less prone (same motor as turbo w/o increased temperatures and pressures). The 1991+ 2.1 litre N/A (presumed by some to be a GM cost down measure) seems to have the most headgasket problems - head easily warps and pits.
In comparison to most other cars, OG900's seem to have a high rate of failure.
