[QUOTE="dfb, post: 123197, member: 11792"] Definitely a leaking head gasket there, yikes! I would be pulling the oil pan to see the condition of the bearings at the very least. Before taking any of the pistons out pay attention to how far up in the cylinder all the pistons come. They should all be exactly the same distance below the deck surface. A bent connecting rod can easily happen when a cylinder gets the volume of coolant in it your motor was likely going through. A bent rod will be shorter and not come as far up in the cylinder. Anti freeze in the engine oil is very bad for bearings. Lots of small details make for a reliable engine repair, start by checking these items first. [/QUOTE]
