1997 Scarab Milky Oil, Please Help!!!

I am brand new to the site guys, but I have a problem. I have a 23 foot 1997 Scarab. It has the 502 with procharger. I took it out this spring to just see how the winter had been on it. It ran and sounded fine, run around 78 mph on GPS not all she could do. Came back to dock and checked oil and noticed it was milky.

I thought it might be condensation, so I changed the oil a couple times and ran it, got milky again. I noticed a little hesitation on take off, could this be intake gasket. Overall performance is still good. May just haft to start with intake gasket and work to the heads and then intake.

One other thing, is I noticed that my flappers seemed to be worn out for my exhaust. Could it be reversion? Any help is greatly appreciated, love the site. I will post pics later.

I answered on your other thread. Check your innercooler for leaks. Procharger was known for this problem for awhile.
also, check your head gaskets. PCs make alot of boost when they spool up and have seen quite a few blown head gaskets that were not up to the task.
