Replace your radiator and get a block check kit to determine if there is coolant in the combustion chamber.

listen to this man he knows his shit

replaced those seals, still light leakage by by head gasket, but i have a broken manifold stud and while i was adjusting my valves i noticed that my timing is advanced by one degree on the intake side, so since the engine has been toyed with maybe the previous owner changed out the gasket before. anyway i have pic's i'll post or have them posted for me later tonight.
