Please help!!! blown head gasket or cracked head

ok..here's how it goes. my car has been sittin down for about 6 months now ever since it overheated on the road. i changed the starter since it fried, it wasnt good any how. now when i go to start it, it turns over but not quite. got it to eventually start. engine running rough..and its' not sounding right. shut of the car and i come out side to find that there's engine coolant leaking from some where. check the radiator hoses, seems to be ok. i don't know where it could be leaking from. i add water to the radiator which is low, start it..and the same thing happens. this time the coolant bottle starts bubbling. check the oil dipstick and there's that gray milky oil mixed with antifreeze. scared me sh*tless. drained the oil, but i don't know what to do now. im hoping it's nothing serious, but it seems as if it is. anyone has some advice on what i should do?? should i change the head gasket which i hear is a pain, or should i just get a new motor?? but dam its a bluebird motor..

Blown headgasket. Milky oil mixed with antifreeze means headgasket, or someone REALLY doesn't like you.

I blew my head gasket years ago on my old 94 SE-R , and i also had that " YooHoo" looking stuff in my dipstick, i would try and buy a BB engine without any of the turbo stuff.

IIRC Tigerjapanese.com sells just the engine with no turbo for like 700 bux.....that's gonna be my route next year

Does anyone have the thread about how to change the head gasket? I really want to change it because i don't have the money to buy another motor right now. And im trying to get my car running so i can move to N.Y. by mid Nov. Thanks.
