my car was doing the same thing, i just got my head back from the shop today it looks brand new only costed me 410.86 but hey my car wont smoke anymore and it came with all the gaskets needed and i should be able to use my stock until i save up for a swap, only thing that sucks is buying new head bolts 96 bucks from the honda dealer for 10 bolts......what a rip off, oh well, good luck
