Default So she overheats....

So yesterday i ran it hard and when i parked idle was funny, so i started messing with the afc and i noticed oil pressure drop to like 13 - 14 psi....wtf!? At this point the engine had been running for a while. I took the spark plugs out and some of the pistons had little spots on them....like detonation. Theres carbon and in the carbon theres little dots of clear. So car is sitting there and my fans decide to give out on me. After a while the fucker overheats! So i shut her off, fix the fans, go around the block to recycle the water back in the block after its cool. Now she has 20 - 21 psi of oil pressure and it goes all the way up to 60 and maybe a bit more while cruising. How can i tell if the motor is good or not? Draining the oil is the only way? This morning i cranked her up and started up fine. man......shit....
