Water in oil

Vacuum gauge is a good tool can also be used for checking retarded timing or advanced timing or weak valve springs or valve guides or burnt valves or sticking valves or in correct fuel mixture it was the obd scan tool of the 60 s 70s 80s 90s

Another way to check for head gasket leak while running would be to hook up a vacuum gauge it will defiantly point you in the right direction for diag if its a head gasket issue or some thing else I use a vacuum gauge on classics that come to the dealer and have drivability concerns good running engine is in between 17 to 21 hg

You can do a leak down test to check if the valves are seating but not to sure that it would be easy to get a water tight seal on the cooling system to perform a test like that i would pull he heads off and inspect head gaskets and have heads pressure tested if you already have it out

It may have been the headers but you pulled engine so no way to tell now since motors out I mean if you come up with a bunch of Spair time put engine back in put in water and hook up vac gauge

Bought the motor already put together. I think it's the headers loading up with water. There was water poring from the little holes in the headers.

Headers are supposed to do that.
If any water gets into the cylinders through your exhaust ports, muddy oil is gonna be the least of your problems.

Most common "milk shake" problem is not enough silicone around the water passage at the intake manifold.
Second I've seen is the head gasket.

REGULATE WATER PRESSURE GOING INTO BLOCK!
