i check my radiator, yup wicked low on coolant. son of a bitch. oh well

looks like shes getting torn down and having the slew of new goodies i have for her put on and going to get retuned.

ill take some pics when the built head comes back from the shop and i can snap some pics of the block ect.

well all the symptoms lead me to hg, it runs perfect still.

rad is now low on coolant, and it only lightly puffs white smoke on decel and at idel/

if it was a cracked sleeve, it would be far worse.

if it was a sleeve, ----, your radiator would blow up on boost :-P and it would have no compression in that cylinder
