    I would love to but I can't photobucket or not. Check this out yesterday when I changed my oil. I took drain plug and about 2 teaspoons of water came out before the oil. Now the oil wasn't coffee colored or milky at all. It looked like regular oil and the water looked like regular water no anti freeze in it. Now 2 teaspoons of water to 6 quarts ain't much but water in the oil ain't never good. Its not the headgasket as all gaskets are brand new and engine was just gone thru a couple months ago. I've been driving it and just drove it 200 miles last weekend without a hiccup. It never runs hot ever. Now for the last couple months I have been driving it without the hood on cuz my hood hits carb with new taller intake on it. Of course I have been caught in the rain a couple times and did have to leave it out overnight a couple times when garage was full. But the heads and intake are aluminum.as well as Cobra valve covers and breather. So I didn't think it would hurt it or water could get in it.
    Now what I did was flush it with oil. I just poured new warmed oil in and let it drain right thru. I then changed the oil as usual with Hemmings Classic Oil. I let it run an half an hour and it ran fine. I then took it out on the street and lit them up and drove for it an hour or so without a problem. I don't know how it got in there. But I will change intake and put my hood back on. It won't matter anyway. I'll skin him you can bank on it!!! If I don't beat him by at least 2 to 3 cars I'll be surprised. He used to have a big block Elcamino with a 4spd when I used to run my big block Cordoba but he never would race me cuz he knew I'd spank him. His dad has a 1967 Camaro with a 572ci that ain't no joke. But its a full blown race car and never runs on the street or 1/8 mile.
