Default Coolant Leak

Hi,
One thing you might consider is the intake to head coolant passages/gaskets. If your running late model heads on a early type intake(coolant passages), you might be getting a miss-match. This will seep a little coolant, especially from both sides and not only from the right side where the thermostate housing and bypass hoses are.

Mr. Fixit,

It is impossible to make sense of accessories on cars that make no sense!

2 seaters
Tiny trunk
No top
No heat
350+ HP
Side exiting HOT exhausts

The list goes on and on!

ENJOY THE EXCESS!!!!!!!!

I just like cars that GO fast, not look fast. Late 60's musclecars that run low 10's without wheeltubs are a favorite, especially when they look slow.

When I see braided lines and AN fittings all I can think of is the pain and bleeding from getting snagged on one of those loose
strands that seem to appear from no where

Makes my fingers hurt just thinking about all on those little "Tin Soldiers" waiting to stick in an unsuspecting, bare finger!

That's why we used to call it hyperdermic hose. But cars don't work right unless some blood and sweat goes into their making.
