Colt 2.4i 16 valve. Head gasket blew. Replaced and pressure tested head ( cold and warm ). Haed is fine. Put head onto block and started up. Water and steam now comes from exhaust. What is the problem?

Hi:
If the head was good, either you have a cracked block, the head gasket wasn't properly installed, or the head or block is warped.
