so yeah

my 84 camaro is pushing coolant out and over the over flow tank...even after purging the bubbles

its a 305 stock 215000 mile car
hoses arent extremely hot to touch
160* thermostat

but after getting on the throttle a few times (less than a mile) it start pouring coolant and bubbles out of the over flow tank


my guess is a head gasket but theres no coolant smell to the exhaust

any help would be appreciated... got 4 days till car craft


anyone use bars leaks prouducts... have a bottle of head gasket repair and a bottle of head and block sealer???
input??

Check your oil and see if theres coolant in it. Just another sign of a bad head gasket.
