might as well rebuild the whole thing dude...if you blew the headgasket and the water got into the oil, then your bearings will be shot in a matter of months...ask me how i know....

and i'm able to get my entire lower end rebuilt and cleaned and checked out/bored out and such PLUS a valve job and adjustment for $900..so it's not too bad
