This is not really FI related, my set up is a ls1 with 6.0 heads ls6 cam and bolt ons t76 turbo. Heads and new gaskets were just put on about 6 months ago but the cars only seen about 10 mins run time and no road time because i got the car running but it was not driveable. Over the weekend i got the car to a drivable state and started to warm it up. Car was in N, well under 200 degrees 170 ish and starts smoking, and it smells like coolant. I check everything and i couldint figure it out so i give it about 25% throttle and under the load more smoke comes out so i turn the car off. I look at the WG witch is dumped into the atmosphere and theres smoke coming out of that so i run my finger in the exit on the wg and theres coolant inside the WG. I check the oil on the car and it looks like the brand new moble 1 i just put into it. I Top off the rad and let it run more after it cools down. I let it get to temp and i gave it a lot of gas and dont see any more coolant coming out. The oil still looks like brand new oil and i let it run for about 5 mins the second time. Is this head gasket failure? I payed for new head gaskets when the motor was built, also i was reading could this of happend because they used
ls1 head gaskets under my 317s? Anyone have an idea of what it could be? Thanks
