Making a separate thread from my project because I'm freaking out and need help from you guys.
So I changed my head gasket out after I blew it with too much boost. There was a lot of white smoke and antifreeze in the oil when that happened.
Now it's all back together and besides some louder ticking from the valves it sounds and runs fine. However it looks like there is white smoke/vapor coming from my exhaust and a little from the valve cover vent tube.
When I replaced the HG I of course drained the oil, drained all coolant replaced the water pump, had the head skimmed, etc. ARPs torqued to 70 ft lbs. Hoping you tell me it's remnant fluid that was left in the oil pan? Could coolant be getting in to the cylinders from somewhere other than the headgasket? Or did I just install the headgasket wrong?
The only other thing I'm really hoping it is, is just condensation. It's 55 degrees and raining outside. But I swear I smell coolant 🤬
