3.1 problem intake gasket ??

Okay I brought a 91 firebird and had a bad bearing. Got a motor from a parts car 3.1 (Never Heard it Run) Checked the bearing etc.

Put on New heads
Seals
Gaskets
Freeze plugs
New parts

Started car Found out the new injectors from ebay are crap.

Found Water in the oil (Milk Shake)

Drain it and change oil and filter same thing happened.

Did loose some anti freeze from the raditor

Did a compression test and have above 150 PSI in all cylinders.

I am thinking its and intake gasket leaking since I have good compression.
No water shooting out of cylinders when cranking.

Anything else to check.

This is going to be my daughter car when she leaves for college
