Well guys i think my recently built 350 is on its way out.Right before I parked my car for winter I did a nice parting burnout and afterwards I did notice the car wasnt too happy about it and kinda ran a lil rough as I parked onto my drive way.

A few days ago I started her up and let it sit and warm up and as I was checking fluid levels etc and putting in fresh gas i thought the car was just idling a lil weird due to the cold..but my valve cover breather is kinda spitting up oil and white smoke.I check the oil dipstick and guess what.. coolant is on the stick but not alot yet.

I dont see any coolant leaking from anything and or on the ground and my coolant level keeps going down.When iI looked on the inside of the oil filler cap it has kinda thin white green oily sludge on it and the car is now hunting during idle,sounds like something is rattling till its warm.Anyone else have these issues with there motors and what should I expect to be the culprit or am i due to just get a new motor?If I gotta tear this thing down again and get it rebuilt I might aswell build it to a 383 for some more power.

I got a couple video clips from my cell phone just so you can see and hear what the car is doing. Any help would be great.

hmmm...sounds like you popped a head gasket or cracked a cylinder head. could be something as simple as a fubard intake gasket though...run a compression check and get back to us.

 

Sounds like that to me too! Or maybe something as extreme as a cracked block. Compression test time!
