Blown head gaskets???
So i'm thinking i have 2 blown head gaskets. The last time the car was running i was filling up the coolant and there was this brownish frothy looking stuff bubbling out of the radiator fill. So i decided to take off the valve covers last night to see if they had any water in them. What i found was some white pasty looking stuff all over the inside of the covers. I have some pics tell me what you guys think.

Yea im going to go ahead and get them decked and a valve job done. With 118k on the motor the heads need to be freshend up and i can bump the C/R a bit to.

Exactly what i did, got a valve job and milled a little bit, also went with the Mr Gasket .026 gaskets to bump the compression a little more. I should be around 11:1 or so, i dont feel like doing the whole equation thing to figure it out lol.
