I dropped a fresh 306 into my 89 GT a couple weeks ago. Got it started with no problems. Ran great for a few moments, then the thermostat opened, and MAN! Water mixed with oil and condensation smoke started pouring out the back. I am talking a lot of water/oil! Car naturally started missing badly.
Here is the kicker: there is no water at all showing on the dipstick. So, I am sorta thinking that I have an intake manifold issue.
I installed a Cobra upper and lower on the motor. It showed no signs of porting. Interesting fact is that where the water pipe screws into the intake, at the passenger side front of the intake, it shows to have a small leak, but, nothing major.
Has anyone run into this? This is just killing me!
Any help from you professionals would be greatly appreciated.
