Re:Yo Sem, what did i hear?
hahahahaha 
Engine is allright.
Blew my Head Gasket.
Have to rip it apart, but it ahs been raining all day and I'm tired.
I was just going to build a custom 2.5 inch exhaust system, cause my 1.5 inch exhaust kills the turbo...and my flange is leaking...turbo begins to build boost at 3200 rpm and dies at 6500 rpm's.

Re:Yo Sem, what did i hear?
Been there done that 3x's on my 1st gen ZC.
ONLY USE OEM HEAD GASKETS!
Felpro's are ----.
I kept on blowing them so I blew one and ended up torqueing the head bolts down to 70ft/lbs instead of the 48
It sealed it pretty tight. I would ahve to fill it up every 2 months.

Yo Semnos!
I have the high pressure radiator hose situation on my B18B right now. It's from a combination of not retorquing my ARP headstuds and the head being milled twice without the dowel pins being shortened.
If you still have it apart, make sure this isn't a borderline headgasket sealing problem due to the head having been milled at some point + the dowel pins weren't shortened.
