Mountain Drive / Popped Head Gasket

[Xenocide]

Went for a mountain drive this weekend, noticed all my coolant was gone afterwards Checked oil, sure enough chocolate milk. Drove it to change oil and some how it had all evaporated, oil looked perfect. I have a theory that the failure is only apparent when the car is really really beat on and heated up...

So time to upgrade, may sell the car, may fix it and add some goodies, I have an extra head but just finding the time to do the labor is hard.

Here is just one photo

you just got the car recently, why sell it? if you have a beater you could always spread the work out over a couple weekends

dropped an extra head off at the machine shop today to get it checked out.

Also thinking about building a 2.9L stroker...my buddy has an entire M54 bottom end with 19k sitting around, and I have my Non-vanos out of the ti....Low compression 2.9L non-vanos turbo motor....hmmm....

Jeez man, you just can't win, first the ti now your 325. 2.9L sounds good though...
