I started on my car this weekend and found some of the bolts that hold the coil bracket lose and then I took of the valve cover and noticed a valve spring inprint on the inside of the valve cover so I found one of the rocker arm bolts finger lose. I think that wight have been what me and rampage heard when the head gaskets when,, that is what got my attention that something was wrong. put the racker arm wasnt screwed up havent get to the lifter yet though. So now my suspision's that the head gaskets have allready been changed are confirmed

I guess buying a used car is always a bit of an easter egg ... sometimes you get good surprises, sometimes not ...

Okay Time out. What do you mean by a valve spring imprint.?
Valve spring imprint on the rocker cover would mean totally destroyed motor. As the valve would drop into the motor.
Are you sure it wasn't the loose rocker beating on the cover.
Need some pics.
