style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Trebuchet

my block and low and behold, oil is not seeping from the
transverse oil gallery into the water jacket. They
pressurized the oil gallery to 70 PSI and it help pressure;
nothing bleed into the water jacket. Rather, the shop
cooked out a bag full of sludge from the water jacket in the
back of the block. Apparently, the regular hot tank dipping
before didn’t dislodge all this gunk, and the circulating
coolant would dissolve just enough to foul the coolant with
the oily mess that sure looked like fresh motor oil mixing
with the coolant. Fooled me, for sure. For good measure,
we will coat the water jacket with some epoxy, then rebuild
the motor with Denis Welch pistons, street cam, bucket
lifters, hollow push rods and fly wheel. I am excited to
experience how it will run with the new DW parts to go with
my DW oil pump I installed years ago.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

diving in to diagnose and fix the oil in the coolant. Hoping
it's just the head gasket, but since it started after the
engine was done 11 years ago, I am suspicious that it's the
oil gallery-water jacket wall between number 4 and 5
cylinders seeping high pressure oil into the coolant. Has
anyone actually had or known anyone with this problem?</span><span
