problems with patriot heads
I have a coolant leak on the drivers side back header bolt. These are brand new patriot heads. do they tie the coolant jacks into the header bolt holes? My bolts are only 3/4 to 1" long and the flanges on my pacesetters are 3/8" so there is no way I got the bolt in to far. Any ideas?

I know that ported heads will often have the water jacket cut into on the intake ports....that's why ALL good head porters tell you to silicone the rocker arm bolts to prevent coolant leaks into the intake, but I'm not sure i've ever heard of a water jacket being cut into on the exhaust side....I guess it's possible but it'd have to be one hell of a port job to remove that much material.
I'd be looking into the possibilities of a crack or gasket leak.......
