Default Well suck!!!

Well suck!! I have been fighting transmission woes for about the last year. I got it running again (but still not shifting right). I took it out today to see if the new modulator valve would fix the shifting part, it didn't. Well I ripped it thru the gears and at the top of 3rd I let out and saw a TON of white smoke in the mirror and the engine died. Coaste down a county road and popped the hood and water everywhere. Hoses still hooked up but overflow blown off. Started it back up to see and it ran really rough and smoking really bad. Hitched a ride home and got the truck and trailer, went back to pull it on and it hydrauliced so I had to push and use the straps to get it on. Came home and pulled the plugs and water came out of holes on both sides. Not good! Don't know if its just head gaskets or something deeper till I get it apart, which I'm not sure if I'm ready to jack with right now. It may get taken to my dads house and stuffed in his shop on the trailer for now.
Suck!!
