OK, I found water in my oil, I went ahead and replaced the upper gaskets.. including the head gaskets, had heads diped, checked out fine, block LOOKED fine... after 100 miles I checked oil, no water on dip stick, pull drian plug, found small amount of water.... what else can cause water to get in to the oil... the dip stick tube is cracked, but again, no water is showing up on the dip stick it's self....:frustrate :shoot:
 






Sounds to me like a cracked block - either that or the head gasket didn't seat well...

That sucks - but look at the bright side - if the block is cracked you can get a V8!

Bummer

Man, I'm a paraplegic, last thing I wanted to do was head gaskets... a V8 Swap, doesn't sound any more appealing...but hehe More Power!
