After installing my header and dual exhaust I am now getting white smoke from the exhaust and water droplets. Iam thinking blown head gasket wondered what you guys thought and if there is any connection with the header, could I have done something wrong when I installed it?
Thanks for any help

I have not done ant checks yet but I was wondering if any of you may have had condensation problems after installing the header. On mine the connection from the header to the intermidiate pipe is the low point, I was wondering if i could be getting condensation at the low point. This problem started with the header install thats why I ask.

Thanks

If you get the smoke and water droplets when the engine is cold, that is ok. This means the engine and cooling system are normal and healthy. If you get this after the engine has warmed up, then I would agree with a blown head gasket. You could be just getting more than normal condensation from the header.
