The bottom end is in good shape and I'm sure the head gasket is blown. Is it worth rebuilding the heads and going from there or is a complete rebuild the answer. Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Aug 14, 2010, 6:57 PM Post #2 of 3 (2110 views) Re: water in the oil Sign In That's a lot of miles on the bottom end to be rebuilding the heads. With water in the oil I would say there is a real good possibility of a cracked head too. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Is there a cat fish in the radiator (inside joke) Is this the 5.7 Vortec? Intake gaskets are common to those. Water in oil. How deep did this thing get exposed to?
