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.

Head gaskets really arent too tough to do. Just make sure to get the heads checked out when you got em off and you'll be good to go.

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.

how much did you get taken off your heads? I'm going to run the same gaskets you have.

also do you have the part # for the head gaskets?

thanks
