I have a 1989 5.7 v8. we replaced the risers and manifolds this year due to their age.Engine has been running fine untill last week when it was hard to start. the starter die and we replaced it yesterday. The eng wouldn't start after the starter was changed.We pulled all the plugs and found water in # 2&4 cyl. Cranked it over several times and nothing but water.We pulled the manifold off the just enough to see and cranked it again. Nothing but water from the plug holes.The plug holes actually leak water staticly without cranking.Is there anything else we can do to make sure it's not the block and just the heads or should we just replace the complete engine. This one has about 700hrs on it. Thanks
