      I'm sure with the blown gasket it let some of that coolant in there, but if you didn't drain the block first some of the coolant will run out into the cylinders and make it look worse than it is. Thats what happened when I swapped my heads anyways.

            my car started out as a blown head gasket job, but the brown goo in the oil pan called for something a little bit different.
