what heads? apparently there are some that would leak there. if they had a battery looking emblem on the head that you could see when you take off the valve cover then that's the bad heads. I'll post a link to my thread.

they are patriot stage 2's... apparently the one hand that works along side of the tuner on the dyno said that it looks almost as if the antifreeze is coming out the actual stud on the front corner of the #2 cylinder. is that possible?

My patriots push coolant fromt the from the #2 header bolt. I just put locktite and it holds really good. I think they were overported on that spot.
