Gotta weird problem (water-radiator)

hey

so we have this truck, its a 95 with a 215 motor, have some mods on it, including a HTB2 64 turbo,
the problem is, it looses water,, we constantly have to refill the radiator!

where does the water go? no leaks anywhere!

is there a blown head gasket? makes about 42-45 psi turbo boost
if, where does th water go? im not sure how it works there!!

thx

check your block for water stains.

My first head gasket just let coolant out. No oil contamination... no running problems.... just let coolan out the passenger side of the gasket.

ill have to check that, this motor layed for a while, till we bought it and installed it, maybe the gasket is dry and whatever.

a just talked to a guy, who blew his head gasket in a almost stock motor, fuel turned up a very little bit.

the water poured on the side between the block n head
