I just put a set of new aluminum mopar performance heads on my 360, now the last bolt on the intake on the passenger side leaks water, any ideas on how to get this to stop leaking? Please advise.

Thanks
Mike

None of the intake bolts should go into water unless the alum heads are different.
are you sure that the gasket is in place.

Pull the intake and see where specifically the water is coming from and when going back together I'd toss the front/rear gaskets and use a wide carefully placed swath of clear silicone on cleaned surfaces as alot of the supplied gaskets are slightly too thick and can hold the intake up just enough for the front water port(s) to leak but this is different & must be checked out.
