Oil report, is it really that bad?
 

I think the jig is up and I gotta pull this motor apart. What do you think?

Its a 94 block with acl race bearings, mtuned rods, supertech 84mm pistons, and a 99 head. The water and oil pump are oe...something like 6k on the motor since it was built I think.

Also while I have everything ripped out should I swap anything out or new seals, bearings, and send it?

Thanks!

Yeah, if coolant is getting into the oil, then you need to fix it.

I had some reports of my Miata, but i can't for the life of me find them. Compare your numbers to my 5l race engine(at 40 hours). I should be getting my report back for this last year soon.

Looks like you've been shoving bananas in your valve cover.

Looks like you are very ready for a rebuild. I'd carefully check your bearing surfaces, if they've been digging into your crank or rods you'll need to source new ones.

Good luck!

Awesome, thanks! I asked a couple friends and they didnt really know what to make of it...but one of them told me to just throw the turbo on. I didnt believe him hahaha.

There is a small possibility that coolant-in-oil contamination can come from a leak in the stock water-to-oil heat exchanger that mounts behind the oil filter. If there aren't any other symptoms (smoke, bad leakdown, etc), I wouldn't tear it apart until you've checked that.

150psi compression test, 3% - 7% leakby with a 100spi leakdown teat.

I had a oil in my coolant a few months back, pulled and tested the head, reinstalled with a commetic head gasket and torques the arp head studs to 60ft lbs in 3 stages.

I also tested the stock oil cooler at 100psi (coolant route) and it was good too.
