Alright guys I'm new to the forums but I have a issue I'll give you guys a run down okay well I put a b20B high comp in my car about 6-7 months ran perfect no issues it's my daily well about a week ago I did the b20v conversion I used all new/name brand parts did everything the correct way, well any ways I used a regular b20 head gasket and it seem to be burning coolant so I overnighted w Cometic b20v head gasket and it's still doing it, yes the head is true the block is true the head is fresh out the machine shop new Everything I sprayed the gasket in copper and touqed my arp head studs down to 30-60-80 did everything the correct way no short cuts well I can't figure out why it's burning coolant it comes through the valve cover and the exhaust any help is appreciated!!

 

perhaps a crack in the head

 

Well I don't think there is at least one that's visible because the head was inspected and pressure tested and came out all good to go and it seems to be doing in cylinder #1 and #4 but what I'm think is I was reading that since the head was drilled to fit the regular non VTEC dowels that maybe it wasn't drilled deep enough and not allowing it to seat all the way?
