Just installed a rebuilt engine and water was in the oil and lifters. Thought i may not have torqued the headbolts correctly, so i redone everything with new headbolts (didn't change lifters again) . I still have the same problem!! Help

If you are still getting coolant into the oil, check to see if you have a warped head or something is cracked.

You may have messed up the intake manifold gasket.
