started when finished drifting at fresno practice last saturday. water hose ripped when coming back from modesto. my friend was driving had little to no water left over heated the motor 3 times. had car towed back. changed the hose but then when started water shoots out of the raditaor caps or when the caps are off shoots to the hood. took themostat off started again same problem. alot of pressure from cooling system. water pump works themostat works. i dont know whats the problem only thinking car is fucked.

 

Ummm yes, most likely your coolant seals are toast. The exhaust gases are now over-pressurizing the water passages and causing your coolant to blow everywhere. time for a rebuild. There are various tests you can do to confirm this, but if coolant is blowing out that violently I don't know if you will physically be able to do it.

 

thanks for the info appreciate it sigh....

 

A severe enough loss of coolant can also scrap irons and housings. The parts list for the rebuild may get longer once the engine is torn down.
