Car is down for the year. Maybe blown head gasket?

While looking things over, I noticed a powdery residue on the passenger side head & block. I suspect that I lifted a head, probably at M7 when the AIR tube blew off.

I guess the car didn't like amount of juice I was throwing at it

Too bad, the little bastard is gonna get more now

The car runs fine, so I'll drive it a bit more this week, and then put it out of it's misery for the winter. See ya all next year..

Im sure its not the head gasket. You would notice something with performance. Is there anti-freeze in the oil? It probably something simple like those crack rocks that you hide in fire wall.

Bring it by. Im at work all day today.

Sell some rocks and get some of these:

Cometic gaskets are pricey, but reusable. Granted if you don't blow them. Which should be hard to do.

I bought some for my next project, due out early 2004(hopefully).
