WOW... Can some people not read ???? AIR IN OIL...NOT WATER
BB head problems with studs and bolts are common.... This is NOT

[/ QUOTE ]

WOWWW is correct.....Ive been out of the country this past week and have not been on this site...or the net for that matter.I must first say that I am very disappointed at the response to my attempt to suggest a possible reason for this problem.I am the first to say that I am the furthest thing from a mechanic and I even qualified my suggestion as probably not the problem.It is rather unbelievable to me that a person asks to keep the ideas coming and then I am treated as if I am an idiot when I try and help by suggesting a possible solution.

I have no expertise whatsoever mechanically, only my personal experience....fact..when I blew a head gasket in my car years ago, the water mixed with the oil and "the oil was foaming and the oil pressure continued to drop" as that was the way I realized the problem...
Another fact..."Yes I can read" and I have reread this thread a few times and cannot seem to see where it was stated that "the problem was air mixing with the oil"... or did I miss that part??
Another fact...head bolt/stud problems are common, agreed, but I do not believe that the 4 extra studs on the ZL1 motor can be very common as these motors are not so common. Or am I incorrect and all of you have come across ZL1 motors that the professional mechanics/engine builders forgot to put in the extra studs??

I have in the past had some conversations with fellow site members when I was not happy or had a problem for whatever reason...but ALWAYS in a private matter.

I will definitely hesitate to add my .02 in the future even if I am 100% sure I can help. ....I sincerely apologize for wasting everyone here`s time with my suggestion.

And not that I need to be stuck up for, but thanks 427KING, and others for your efforts.

once again, I quote....WOWWWWWWWWWWWWW
