    Default Super fast warm up

    So I let the car warm up for the first time after the rebuilt head

    it warmed up in 5 minutes
    so I tweated the iac cause it stayed at 1.5krpm the entire time
    is this normal or is there a problem

    o yea and I suddonly have coolant on my floor board....heater core issues?

    Coolant in the floor is definitely a heater core gone bad.

    Coolant in the floor board definitely sounds like a heater core...

    Since you rebuilt the head did you use new cylinder head bolts? Any coolant in your oil?

    If the head is not seated properly compression can be let into the system and the heater core is usually the first thing to blow.

    i got some arps so the oem bolts could be set to rest

    there is not a drop of coolant in the oil


    if the heater core is garbage would that cause me to have slim to no pressure in the radiator hoses????

    and if the heater core is the first to blow can in blow in a matter of 15 seconds or less?

    the fitting ends of the heater core (located on firewall in bay) tends to get crushed easily...i am just assuming that you were in that area working if you had the head rebuilt or did it yourself....just take the two hoses off and check those ends....
