anti freeze leaking - 02/09/20 09:46 PM
Hello
I just installed a '55 235 engine in my '37 pickup.When I was getting ready to start it for the first time, I was filling it with anti freeze. I noticed anti freeze coming out of the 2 rocker arm cover holes on the driver side. I put bolts in the holes to stop the anti freeze from leaking out and started my engine for the first time. Every thing was fine except the 2 leaks. Has anyone else experienced this? Do I need to put studs in to attach the rocker cover? The # on the head is 3835913-GM 22. Any help is appreciated.
thank you
