Trick Flow small block heads

Sounds like the kind of combo that can make good use of those heads.

Hope the water/oil issue is an easy fix.

If you used mls gaskets, and didn’t use sealer around the water holes in the heads and block........ I know that can sometimes be problematic.
yeah, they're cometic mls gaskets.. No sealer because they said not to (but that doesn't mean anything). All the surfaces were quite smooth, I think they require a 50RA or something along those lines. I think I got the water thing sorted. My Oil pan is a Kevko pan with baffles, it never completely drains and didn't realize when I jacked up the front of the car with the intake off it dumped water back into the pan. We'll see hopefully it's not more severe than just my error (at least I caught the milky oil in the garage before I went out and thrashed on it).
