tell me its a bhg

... because I have no idea what else it could be. No milky oil, no white smoke, no power loss... but it does spit coolant out of the reservoir. Given that mine is a N/A, I first thought it was trapped air that pressurized as the temperature increased. So I burped it- several times. I had no idea where air could leak in through other than a bhg, so I stopped driving it.

I'm just about ready to start tearing the head apart, I just need to finish reading the various bhg posts. I just hope the surface isn't warped. I'm thinking stock gasket with ARP bolts. I don't want to have a shop do it because they'll set it to factory specs. Any input is appreciated.
