Last year I change my head with a later one since overheating the original and finding exhaust in the coolant. Bought an 85 head and spent 1000 bucks to have it completely redone. Pressure tested, milled, New valves etc. Also milled the chain cover.
Started it up last year just to see that everything worked then it's been sitting and now I've rejetted my dcoes and change bearings in the trans to get it Rolling again.
However i am getting a lot of blue smoke, and also bubbles in my coolant when revving. This gives me bad vibes.
Bolt bores were cleaned thouroughly and bolts and washers lightly oiled when I installed the head. Torqued after warming up, However did not loosen the bolts to do it. Have not found my coolant exhaust tester yet so will see what that tells me when I find it.
Will I have to redo the whole thing again?
