OK, i just got done redoing my engine, becuase of a blown head gasket....

put the new head gasket on, trqoue everything down...

got it all back in... tryin to crank it, no start..

so i take out a spark plug and crank it again, and water starts going everywhere..

so i am gettin water from my radiator, into the combustion chamber..

what do i have to look for... warped head? cracked block??

did you put the head gasket on facing the right way??? also how did it blow ??? due to age?? or is it supercharged or use nitrous??

when you redid your headgasket, did you resurface the head? the machine shop usually does an inspection of the head at that time

yes it is both, s/c novi 1000 with 7 psi, and nos... but it blew *** i was driving it on the trailer, it didnt blow when i was revving it or anything...


also no i didnt get my heads resurfrace... shouldve... but didnt...

my compression a little high though... i have 10-1 c/r w/a s/c... thats y i didnt mill the heads.

Get a thicker gasket to lower cmpression. Might look for a crack in the intake since you'll have it off. Is there water in all the cylinders or just one?
