I have a rebuilt 360 I have dropped into a 73 Charger SE. I am having an issue with a water leak. On the right (passenger side) front exhaust stud, apparently there is a water port. I keep having a leak. I was told to replace the stud, which I did. Was told to put teflon tape on it to stop leak. I did, but it didn't stop the leak. I was then told to put high temp silicone on it. I did this too but still have a leak.

Any suggestions?

 

Front and rear stud locations on both sides enter the water jacket. I had the same problem on my Aspen. I got new studs and wrapped the crap out of them with teflon tape and they stopped leaking. If you never want to take them out you could drain the sytem and mix up some JB Weld and pooky the stud and hole with it, let it dry then fill it up again.

 

Does it leak all the time or just when the motor is warm? Did you have hte heads checked for cracks?
