Hi, I have a 90 civic hatch with a B16 swap, it was missfiring and now there is fuel in th eradiator, is that a head gasket or head issue?

Could be either. More likely a head-gasket though.

Before you rip the head off you may also want to check the intake mani gasket; coolant and fuel could also get mixed if that gasket is cracked and you'll get a misfire. Spray some carb cleaner around the gasket and see if that changes your idle.
