Water in Head 2-leaking head studs
Ok my cluster __ck continues. I had a new motor built after my first motor was a pc of you know what.
I found a new builder with a good rep -dyno'd the motor last week. Two days after i got the motor home i went to put on diff valve covers. Noticed clear water in the head area about 3 tsps. I called the builder he said it was most likely condensation. Motor is 388 sbc w canfield heads.
I put the motor in ..ran it for 10 min and found a puddle of coolant after i turned the car off. I found every head stud i could see leaking coolant around it. Coolant temp was about 160 for the short 5 min. Builder claims i cant use coolant in this motor..just water ..why?
What can be done with this?.. do the heads have to come off??.. how should this be handled.?
This motor has no passes and never left the garage. has total of 4 dyno pulls and 5 min of run time in the garage
<< Sigh>> this sucks.. and this musical motor thing is making my back sore!
