Blown Head Gasket Symptoms! - Page 8

Hey Bud, if it is blowing coolant out of the exhaust, it is far more than just a head gasket ! That head is warped bad ! Is it just white smoke or dripping out? The turbo might be messed up too.
How much is he asking for it? I have a stage 2 port polished head if you need one ! I am only asking $150 plus shipping.

Im really not sure if its white or not i haven't gone to look at it and hes asking like 600 for it but ive found a better deal for another 87 supra with less miles and what seems less of a problem the other supra i want to go look at had a hg replacement and now its leaking oil and its making a clanking noise ( this is what the guy selling it told me ) and he wants 800 for it

Not sure if you want to go with something that is making clanking noises. Better off with the one that has a blown headgasket.

yeah i think i might just wait til i find something that's in better condition. how much do you think it would cost to get the head fixed if its warped??

I know I know about the head gasket symptoms. Changed out the old blown HG with a new HKS metal one and ARP head studs, radiator, cap, water pump, and thermostat. After about an hour of driving, she'll spike up to about 3/4 on the gauge...usually drop shortly after back to normal. Rarely does it stay at 3/4 for more than 5-10 seconds. I do have boil over in the resevoir. I've tested the coolant for exhaust so many times now and still no evidence. I will be getting a slightly higher psi radiator cap and ANOTHER new thermostat but this has been driving me nuts for about 2 years now. Damn near willing to sell it if this doesn't get resolved and I REALLY don't want to do that...have had it for 10 years now.

Not all BHG's are like this, I think most are the cylinder to water jacket leak type.

With my BHG, the oil was perfect. It came to a point where the combustion gasses would just cause the car to spit out coolant even in idle, yet the oil and coolant never mixed or had a leak amongst each other.

u know anyone who can help me replace my headgasket and put everything back together im not familar with the wire harness and where everything goes????
