SOURCE: blown head gasket
to replace head gaskets about $ 1500...... its called steel seal i just tried today it worked just like they claimed.... The car i was working on was just pumping out white smoke ... thought i would try ..it worked quit smoking started running smoother... it says permanent repair... will see but looks good $ 80 a bottle.... hope this helps
SOURCE: Blew the head gasket and had head resurfaced.
SOUNDS LIKE THE TOP OF THE PISTONS ARE HITTING THE VALVES. IF YOU HAVE HAD THE HEAD SKIMMED YOU ARE BRINGING THE HEAD .018IN CLOSER TO THE BLOCK. REALISTICLY YOU SHOULD GET A THICKER HEAD GASKET OR TRY PUTTING 2 ON. IT SOUNDS EXTREME BUT ENGINES ARE VERY PROCICE AND THESE MOVING PARTS ARE VERY CLOSE TO START OFF WITH.

Below I posted the information you needed. The cam is easy, just do it in order and by the torque specs. the cylinder head you must be very detailed with and follow the indtructions to the letter or you will be waisting your time. If you have any other questions or need any pictures feel free to email me at [email protected] and be detailed as to what you need so I'm sure to send the right stuff. I hope this helps and good luck. By the way since you have the engine pretty much torn down, have you thought about the oil pump as well. that engine is famous for them going and would think about replacing as well to be on the safe side. I believe the cost including a new timing cover with it is about $150.00. It might be worth the extra $$$ while you're putting so much into it already....Just a thought. Do this for a living and have seen it a lot.
