Antifreeze in oil. I have just completed a complete overhaul on the top end head gasket and all. Any suggestions as what could be causing this?
It had over heated and I had the head shaved to ensure a good flat head.

Cracked head or block. Did the shop who milled the head give specs about how much warpage was present?
You could try a leak down test. If there is a crack, you may hear it bubbling the coolant.
What about the engine oil cooler? Could it have went bad?
No specs. But I will try the leak down test. Thanks.Quote:

Yes that is the one. When it had over heated it melted the knock sensor, so I was just wondering if it might have done something to the oil cooler too?Quote:

A lot better to invest in a much newer engine than hope to fix the old one.
plus if you can find a 6sp BP4w, it has some weird intake cam in it.
You'd likely need to remove that and send it to me. ;)
Doubtful, but if it was that hot, I'm surprised it didn't seize.Quote:
