  • 96 firebird 3.8 head gasket or cracked cylinder head help!

    Hey everyone. I have been in the process of reviving my bird...

    Has been sitting for a couple years and was overheating before i put her into her slumber.

    So fast forward to present. I have drained the coolant. Old dexcool garbage. I changed the upper rad hose and thermostat was going to begin doing a flush. However i was pouring water in to do a flush but the after pouring over the rated amount it still wasnt full... Thats when i was starting to fear the coolant was in the engine block. Opened up oil drain pan and there she was, water and oil mix.

    My question now is... Should i go ahead and start changing all the gaskets, or what??? I really want her back on the road but not sure what to do. Any advice?
