I think you've got your problem right there...
Even if it were caused by a clogged filter I can't think of anywhere else where the oil could get pushed into the coolant passages.
How much oil are we talking about anyway?

:wtf: DAMN! The only other time I'd ever heard of something like that was back in high school when a complete idiot poured oil in his rad. Unfortunately I can't imagine anywhere else (besides the HG) where that could happen. Any coolant in the oil pan?
you didnt like... mix up your oil and coolant lines on the turbo or something did ya? cuz god damn, four quarts? Good luck with whatever it is, sounds like a nightmare
^^^yep, forgot about the turbo lines... Don't know how you'd do it unless you've run custom lines.
im hoping a cloged filter since i pouerd four in and nothing was in the pan.
I went and played w/ it today some more today and oil was shooting from the dip stick!!!!

You've got to be kidding. When you add oil to the engine most of it runs down into the pan via the crankcase vvent hose... so unless you've decided to run your coolant lines in a VERY interesting way your HG didn't seat... at all.
Yeah I have no idea how this can even happen... it's strange like you reversed the flow of coolant and oil through the passages in the head or something... lol
I hope you figure it out...

found one leak....the hose from the valve cover to bottom has a crack in it. So far the oil looks fine after checking under the valve covers and dip stick, although I did find that it is slightly over filled. Im draining the coolant as we speak.

weird, but how is it possible to pour 4qts of oil into cooling system??? Oil must have been under heavy pressure or something for this to happen
