Blown head gasket..
Well i was driving last night and all of a sudden my Check engine light came on and i had a trail of smoke.I pulled over and opened the hood to see a gang of smoke and a hissing noise from under my intake manifold there was really no radiator fluid left in the radiator and the oil smells really bad..I also got what it looks like a little bit of oil in my throttle body.
I have a GSR with Type R pistons and full valvetrain with all the basic MODS intake header exhaust fuel ugrades.
Does this sound like a BLOWN head gasket or worse....

Re: (0260MOTORSPORTS)
you will have to remove you cylinder head - and send it to a machine shop to inspect - if that wope then they will mill that .
then you will install that with a brand new head gasket
happened to me, but my local shop did all that for $700

from what I have read...I belive that is a direct way of knowing you have a blown headgasket.
time to start taking off the head
you should do a compression test to check what each cylinder reads aswell
