    oops, lollercoaster

    we had 1 day where the weather was like 10 degrees outside, and i start the car the next morning, and coolant is pouring out from what i thought was the water pump, turned out it was shooting out of the head gasket, so i pulled it all apart and am preparing to get the head sentout to machining and cleaning, but heres some pics.












    fun right?

    Have your head,s surface checked at a machine shop and when you go back together with it use this on the head gasket.

    Edit actually smear it on the block deck and head deck.

    Just look at the head in the first pictures, and then the picture of the gasket. The gasket was completely trashed.
