340 coolant in #2

[Aaaaa]

How much coolant is it down?

Probably was down a a quart or 2. Oil wasn’t milky was layered with the anti freeze being on bottom and good oil on top.

So you drained the oil and left it settle and found about 2 quarts of antifreeze?

The block decked and the intake surfaced also?

 

[Aaaaa]

Antifreeze was coming out of the oil pan drain plug first then followed by the oil

antifreeze was coming out of the oil pan drain plug first follow by the oil. 1 to 2 quarts was judging by the oil level on dipstick

Ok got it.

I'm thinking,if the block was decked the intake is not matching up.

Yeah I believe so, it always ran great with no noticed coolant leaks. Motor probably doesn’t even have 200 miles on it. It was broken in on a dyno

I’m just confused at how coolant would get in the #2 cylinder from the intake, it would go straight to the oil pan I thought

I comes to mind.that the deck is milled .009 the intake is .013. Don't quote me on that check it.

In time all may leak. tear it down.

yeah think I’ll pull the intake tomorrow to look around some more and then heads. Trying to figure out what head gaskets were used

 

[Aaaaa]

Got her fired up, running greaat. Had no obvious signs of any problems. At a loss, but all put back together and no leaks.

Thanks was thinking the same. I put fresh oil it in and sucked coolant out. Also put marvel myster oil down each cylinder, rotated freely by hand. Wonder if I should prime oil pump and fire her up to see if she’s leaking steadily?

I would get new intake and head gaskets as cheap as they are just to be able to check if the head surface is good on head check all for peace of mind and then you would know what you have if decently close on surfaces clean real good and get thicker head gasket. Re torque and go a little more wont hurt especially if there are original head bolts better yet get a topend set from arp maybe even studs .its better then a hole in the pistons .thats my 2 cents good luck
