Well looks lije it was head gaskets afterall. Wouldnt start because of all the antifreeze in the cylinders probably. Will have it back by friday. Changing heads and doing a valve job. Looked at the pistons and they alnost look new haha, antifreeze cleaned them up good!

Check to make sure all you pistons come all the up flush or a few thousandths higher than the deck. If it had enough water to not start, could have hydrolocked and bent a rod or two.

Water is non-compressable and will **** up a motor real quick. Like joey suggested, make sure that nothing got bent.
