help!!! a lot of smoke comin from my breather and a loud tickin sound
 

okay my friend just installed the head for me we also did the timing/readjusted valves, and everything was fine for about 1 hour...then i shut the car, and when i started up the car again, there was a loud tickin sound, and also there were a lot of smoke coming out of my breather....

i had trouble with this head before, but i took it the a shop and they resurfaced it and also pressure checked it and they told me it was fine.....do you guys think its my head? or could it be my piston rings? If it is my head, i can change it right away, but i dont want to change it only to find out its my block that is messed up.

any suggestions on what it could be

Whats ticking? Is it your valves? Did you adjust them properly?

Re:help!!! a lot of smoke comin from my breather and a loud tickin sound
 

Well did you have any problems prior to the head swap. If not looking in the heads direction. Did you adjust the valves?

Re:help!!! a lot of smoke comin from my breather and a loud tickin sound
