If you ran too much timing, or too lean, it's definitely going to pop the head gasket, pressurize the system, and leak externally. Now normally I've seen when this happens coolant comes spewing our the reservoir, but I guess it's possible to leak out of some other seal BEFORE the radiator. And of course, you now have a spun bearing. I just find it hard to believe that a lot of other guys are boosted on stock internals, making a bit more power than you, and so far so good on their stock motors. |

You must of missed the post where I mentioned that the car was idled with no oil pressure up to operating temp while I checked for leaks. Totally my fault that I didn't see the low oil pressure symbol on the dash. The tuner isn't the best either but I'm almost certain it's just the oil issue and nothing else.
