Default BAD NIGHT FOR ME.... blew a rad hose... n im wondering??????

here's wat happen.... i was drivin n drivin breakin in my new motor. n in 4th gear goin 50 on highway the radiator hose busted/came off the back.. next thing i know i see nothin but smoke.... i roll out the next near exit n pop my hood n look....everything seems ok but here's my questions..??

i rolled about a block or two off the highway.. will there be any damage to my motor???

after i got it home i put the hose back on n fill it back up with antifrezz started n it seems ok.... but when i rev it water or antifreez was comin out the exhaust..

open up the radiator cap and see if you see bubbles in the coolant or the coolant just shoot straight out,

if that's the cast you blew it

I bet you blew your hose because the HG was bad and pressure was building up in the cooling system.
