I took the head in for a resurfacing and cleaning. It fixed my coolant issues. But, because the oil got contaminated with large amounts of antifreeze after the head gasket blew, Im sure the rings and bearings are fried.

Looks alright at least.


Out of focus, I know. The lcd display on my camera is impossible to see in the daylight.
Anyways, those plugs have less than 5 miles on them. Theyre brand new.

More like technical advice. How you didnt get that is beyond me.
Dont post in my threads with a condescending attitude.

All I did was drive the car around my block once, and thats how they look. The #3 spark plug was dripping oil on my valve cover after I took it out.

did you make sure your block deck wasn't warped when you put the head back on?
are the seals in your valve cover for the spark plugs good?
crank the car a couple times with the plugs out and clear out the cylinders spray some tb cleaner or something in there with the spark plugs out and crank a few times. clean up the plugs and try again.
