I just got my rat rod on the road yesterday... Flogged on it pretty hard yesterday didn't notice any leaks or and thing strange with coolant (I have clear crossover hose to watch for bubbles in system). Today I drove it a got on it two or three times for 1-3 seconds might got to 25-30 lbs boost.

I parked it for a few hrs then drove it to get some food and noticed oil around valve covers... I popped the covers off and saw the milky oil and then checks the dip stick and the radiator all of it is mixed...

After talking with a few friends and talking about oil cooler, head gasket, etc... I decided to see if the brand new arp studs where tq to 125... So none of them were.. Any chance that I just have loose studs and not a torn gasket? I didn't have too much pressure on the coolant bc it didn't even Come out of the over flow tube?
 
This is how much they moved

That's not much movement. If it's mixing that bad, I don't think torquing them will solve it.

Doubt it's a crack n block or head bc it's been tanning for a while at idle and some of streets.... Would seem like I would get mixture in it sooner if it was.
