blown head gasket?

[boostin_pony]

so what do ya think? should i get the head check? the car ran fine probably just a little shaky but thats it oh and a little bit of smoke?

Check to see if the head is flat with a straight edge. If it's not, have it decked to straighten it out. Most likely it's fine though.

well just my luck it does have a small crack on the exhaust on cyl 3 could it be fixed or just buy a new one? any one have one for sale?

They all have cracks...literally. Every stock turbo head I own has at least one...most have multiple cracks. They don't leak into the coolant or oil though so it doesn't effect how it runs. Like 95% of all turbo heads being run today are cracked...

Where does one look for cracks in a head? I had to pull a head off of my 140K motor today, checked out the chambers, and didn't see any cracks. did turn up this though

In the exhaust seat area...
