Re: my 87 chevy project

Look and see if you may have blown a gasket. Also what type of headers you running. I used to have 79 Scotsdale with cheap black jack headers and they ended up warping because I was running the snot out of it playing Light to light race with mustangs... of course this was 1987 ....lol
