About 2 months ago on my 01 civic lx i had to get my head rebuilt bc I had 2 bent valves. Replaced head gasket and reinstalled rebuilt head ran good for few days than started to overheat after driving about 15 min. Heat would take a while to work. Replaced thermostat and fan switch still does it. Had my car parked nose down on a hill for a few hours and it wouldn't start. It would crank almost start than die. It would flood the engine. When car was cold after cranking few times took radiator cap off and it was under pressure. Finally got it started and it ran rough for few minutes white smoke from exhaust. Thinking it's my head gasket? maybe head messed up again?

The block no the head to my understanding was. It was done at a head shop that did a pressure check and couple other things. The cooling system was bleed but thinking back on it probably not the 20 - 30 min it should've been.
