Message: [QUOTE="powerstrokedkid87, post: 1422825, member: 1658"] this was the original plan, we sealed the three middle studs on each side, but I found coolant coming up the rear stud hole on the driver side, back and forth between taking a change and sealing all the studs again or pulling the motor and checking the entire thing. heads are headed to the machine shop first but well have to make a decision soon on what we want to try and do. but our biggest issue was the oil and coolant mixing under the valve covers. only thing we can see as the possibility is the bottom of that stud hole has a crack in it which is hard to believe since we filled the bottom 1/3 of the block to help alleviate this some frustration setting in, but were not stopping with it. studs were torqued to a1 spec, I believe 190 id have to go back and check I don't recall off hand but it was done as per the a1 specifications. as far as back pressure, never got a chance to put the gauge on it but I will say this truck has dripped after a heavy run every time since we put it together.
