Coolant leak from header bolt hole.
I have a pair of World S/R heads. Now in the instructions, it says to use a thread sealer on exhaust bolts as the bolt holes intercept coolant passages on some of the holes..OK... I used Permatex liquid type with teflon...leaked,...tried the teflon pipe tape,...leaked. Is there any other sealers out there to use ? It stays good till it gets hot. I figure its melting the sealer being at the exhaustport. Think maybe a high temp RTV ? heck, I don't know, I'm disgusted. I am at the point of putting header studs in with JB Weld to stop it, but that's pretty drastic....HELP please. Called World,... they state the liquid stuff I used should seal it...it don't.Last edited by Weasel Diesel; 08-22-2010 at 10:01 AM.

Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
