Exclamation Oil analysis Q's

Ok, I just did another oil analysis and I am worried of the results. From the start they have always been worried about there being antifreeze in the oil. When I run it it smells like antifreeze but the oil is not milky or thin, but does smell weird. The oil level has risen since last changed also, but not sure what it is from. The truck has under 36K on it still, not sure if I should try to get a dealer to take care of the truck or just take it easy on her until I have the coin to do a full rebuild. Anyway here is the most recent oil analysis.

Definitely would have them take a look before the warranty runs out. I would be concerned.

I am fairly certain that I lifted my head with too much boost and it has caused a blown head gasket. I am just going to tear it apart and replace the head gasket, stud it, put bigger springs in, and get a bigger charger at the same time. I do not want to take it to the dealer really because I know that this is not a stock problem, it is a problem that I caused by turning her up. This is one of those times that the saying is comong true; "You gotta Pay to Play".
