This is a new build Sb 360 13.5/14.1 compression.Seems the cooper head gaskets are not sealing.I sprayed them with cooper coat spray.The block is o-ringed.With the radiator cap off i can rev up motor and the water spews out and bubbles.Would you guys try the holomor stuff or buy new cooper head gaskets.looks like there is a sec stamp on gaskets.  
After two months of spending all my money.working my azz off on this torsion bar mopar.with all the finger cuts/bruises/soar back ect.The damm thing leaks water/what in the cat hair.Out of all the guys i race with i am the only mopar.They keep telling me to buy a chevy.

I used coopers and a copper O-ring on my 318 turbo motor. I used 'The Right Stuff' around all water and oil passages. 24lbs of boost and zero leaks.Dave

Where can i buy this 'the right stuff'
It's just real aggressive silicone that takes years off your like to get it off. I've been going through the same thing and finally it turned our to be the head gaskets. They were wrong for my application. Do yourself s favor though, have the heads pressure tested. Also, get a cooling system pressure tester and find out where it's leaking.

I used copper gaskets on my 15.19 comp. wedge, o-rings with hylamar sealer (the blue stuff) no leaks. You will have to anneal and CLEAN the gasket to reuse. I' m assuming you spelled it wrong, if not disregard what i just said.

I use the copper colored RTV silicone on copper head gaskets w/ O-rings. Put a light coating on the gasket, assemble, and let it sit for at least 24 hours. Never had a problem.
Done this on our 436" sb chevy w/ 14.5:1 compression.

Yamabond 4 worked great for me! Four years of street driving and no leaks from my copper head gaskets.
