Absolutely ! Water in cylinder. You may get lucky,but with 400,000 (if that is the original engine) you may as well tear it down all the way and have the machine shop appraise whether or not to bore and rebuild. Of course you could repair the intake gasket for now and start planning a replacement or schedule to rebuild.

Well I'm gonna do a compression test and what not and go from there. If I luck out and can get by with just the intake gasket for now I will do that and then start saving and planning for a new motor. Possibly a v8 swap even. I'll keep you guys posted!
