Overheated......... pics

[zerepdivad]

OK so i overheated because of a stupid *** leaking radiator, and suprise suprise my head gasket blew. It overheated a few times actually. But i was a dumbass and put off getting a new radiator. Then While just driving normal down the street with temps normal i see HUGE clouds of white smoke coming out of my exhaust and a guy even flagged me down because he thought i was on fire.

The gasket must have blown right by cylinder 4 because when i was doing my compression test with all of my spark plugs out and was testing compression on the motor a HUGe stream of water came out of the number 4 spark plug hole. It scared the hell out of me and got all over my friend. Well enough rambling here's a few pics of tonight when i was getting ready to pull the motor and throw in another one i had sitting in the garage.

Here's a pic of the motor that's going in the slut hopefully by monday at the lastest.

haha yeah that coolant in the manifold really made me realize why there was SO much damn white smoke.... had to take a picture and post up.

Yeah that's an ebay manifold. I bought a jgs 5 bolt flange and had a custom downpipe/exhaust made.
