crck in one of the heads, or maybe there was alot of core shift in your head and with the porting something got too thin??? your gonna have to go over the heads with a fine tooth comb, and maybe a magnifying glass. Was there coolant in both headers??? that seems weird. Alot of coolant in both headers seems almost impossible unless the coolant got sucked in throught the throttle body somehow? Is the Tbody bypassed?? Very weird.
