Water in the oil

Here's the problem. Car (95 Z28 LT1)was blowing white smoke out of the exhaust. No signs of water in the oil at this point. Took heads off and found a ripped head gasket and water was going into number 7 cylinder. Replaced gaskets and put everything back together. Started car and ran for a couple of seconds. Was going to change oil before I ran it again, now when I pour antifreeze in a couple of seconds later it comes running out of the oil pan. Any suggestions would be great.

are u sure its coming out of the oil pan? or does it just look like it? it could be running down ur block from one of the many soft plugs. my friends was doing that and it was coming from the one in the back. so the tranny had to be dropped to change it.

I'm sure it is coming out the oil drain plug. I used Felpro gaskets with new head bolts and double checked the part number on the head gasket kit to make sure it was the right one. But just by adding coolant to it, no pressure in the system it comes out as a steady stream. I would think if it is a cracked head or something the crack would have to be huge in order for it to run out that fast. Any body have any thoughts?
