car overheated, won't start, drained the oil and theres def coolant mixed in it... my main question, is there just head damage or is theblock going to be toast as well? basically im broke and im banking on just the head being warp'd, seized.
 
How bad did it overheat? You would be lucky to only have a warpe/cracked head. You wont know the full extend of the damage until you pull the head and take a look at everything.
 
thats what i figured, what should i be looking for after i get the head removed?.. or am i going to have to dismantle the block too before i can know anything with any certainty.
