Symptons of a Blown Head Gasket?!?!?! JR!!!!

Well I haven't had a chance to play with it since i got back. But talking to some guys up at work (BMW Dealership) they think it has to be a timing and flooding issue. I had the timing retarded a bit but I think with the chip plugged in it was dumping fuel because with the oil problem that i had coming through the pcv, it was causing it to run really lean so we had to richen it up a lot. So now that I fixed that problem, I think its just dumping fuel. Unfortunetly I'm outta town this weekend, so it won't be until monday night that I can get to it. But wish me luck. Anyone else have ideas??

Did you check the fuel pressure?
 
FP is fine. I had my local tuner reburn my chip and lean it out a bunch just out of guess. I tried starting it tonight and not much happened. It turned over strong but didn't start. So I'll give him a call in the morning and maybe burn it again to make adjustments.
