Default 1971 C10 Build/Restore-SBC 350/TH350

Replaced leaking water pump gasket.





Tearing engine down due to suspected head gasket leak. Oil has turned into milk, I drained the oil pan and about a quart or two of water came out first.





One head off, found out this 350 has been bored .60 over :pimp





Hmm something doesn't look right here, a couple clean cylinders, shouldn't they all be the same??





Head gaskets installed! Sprayed some paint and I was hoping blown head gaskets would be the problem.... ohh those 5 hrs of my life I would never get back.. smh
