    Water coming from valve covers?

    Ok I feel real real real dumb right now I think all my problems might have been the 3/8 to 7/16 shims/washer things for the head studs I did'nt use them when I first put it together. Don't ask why cause I will just have to tell you my head was up my butt. They are on now so lets see if that works.

    Water coming from valve covers?

    The h/g's where only on there for about ten minutes of run time. So I guess they look pretty good to me. I don't see any signs of a blown h/g. I think that maybe the heads did'nt get cleaned by me good enough. Oh well I will start from scratch and see if that fixes the problem unless you...

    Water coming from valve covers?

    So I pulled the heads and found scaling in the water ports and it seems like the head gaskets only have a 1/8 inch holes for the water ports is this right?

    Water coming from valve covers?

    yeah I changed the oil, what made me think it was the lower intake was the rust on the mating surface, but I guess I was wrong. Maybe I'll get it right soon. I hope anyway.

    Water coming from valve covers?

    update, I put water in it and we are back to square one still getting water in the oil. Same problems as before. I guess it's time for a head gasket and I'll get the heads checked while I'm at it, I may end up w/ more compression by the time its done. Just want to know anyone want a 90 coupe...

    Water coming from valve covers?

    It was the plug itself the threads closest to the head, just pulled one out of the water logged 351w in the 84. On the leak I think that a little rust had set up on the mating sirface of the head. Cleaned it w/ some 400 grit and think she is good as new. Fingers crossed anyway.

    Water coming from valve covers?

    Well it was the intake gasket right by the water ports, I think did'nt have enough time to get it all the way back together. But the 1250 was soaked in the water port area. When I changed the oil the rear sump drain plug striped out when I pulled it out so all in all I LOVE MY CAR!!!!! Anyway...
