Finally got the head back on after I blew a head gasket.

Got the motor started back up, idles like a champ, timing must be right, everything looks pretty good.

Am I supposed to just warm the motor up, then turn it off, then change the oil? I changed the oil before i started the motor, just not sure if I need to change it again immedidately since antifreeze got in the oil when the hg blew out?

What is propper procedure for that?

Also, I drove it around the block and it ran good. I am noticing some smoke though, out the breather filter, and out the exhaust when I rev the motor. Think it will go away after a few hrs of driving or something?

There are on leaks no the ground, so i guess everything is doing ok. Let me know if you need any more info, I have completely removed/replaced/reassembled just about everything except the block.

um.. if you didnt do anything with the piston rings. then there shouldnt be any breather problems. also shouldnt need to change the oil.

Well, I drained the oil, and glad I did, I could see some antifreeze in it still, that might have been why it was smoking a little, because now it seems fine.

I went ahead and flushed and refilled the coolant also, just incase some oil got it there, i dunno, but made be feel better emoji

I am gonna run 10psi for a few days and double check my work before I test this PortFueler out on high psi runs.

The motor runs 10 times better than it did with the Accel DFI controlling fuel, there is no comparison as far as driveability is concerned, very happy I went with a AIC setup.
