if you got coolant in the oil you may as well throw in some new main and rod bearings. can have the head p&p'd add some hp springs and retainers, bigger cam, hp lifters and maybe some hp rockers. now would be a good time to add some headers and clean the engine bay up.

Its not the head gasket, it's the lower intake gasket.

^You're so sure lol. I love it. I'm not doubting you. I would have also thought of a head gasket or intake gasket. Pure awesomeness. "It's the lower intake gasket"

As for more power, craby nailed it. If you wanna get crazy, you could do the 3400/3500 intake and head swap. That will give you some hellatious power.
