Need a little help here-
I was getting ready to start my new 482 for the first time, filled it with coolant. New Pond block, new Edelbrock ported heads. I noticed a good trickle of coolant collecting at the head-deck junction just below the #2 exhaust port. No coolant in any of the cylinders, no coolant coming out of any of the exhaust bolt holes or the exhaust ports themselves. The coolant doesn't seem to be tracking from anywhere else. When I wipe it clean, it immediately recollects.
I guess I'm going to have to pull the head off, but does anyone have any ideas what this could be? Pinhole in the deck or the head itself? Like I said, this motor has not been started yet.
Thanks for any ideas.
