I mentioned this to a friend that was in the shop rebuilding my tranny and he took a look and he pointed out that there was a pin hole on the back/bottom of the front passenger side header bolt hole so I took another look and whew, there it was so now I feel much better now that I know where the water came from.


Thanks for the heads up about the possibility of the Indy holes leaking water. My old 440-1 heads never leaked water from the header bolt holes. But this year I have a newer set of CNC-345 heads so I just went in the garage and checked them (not on the motor). None of the holes leaked into the water passages. Glad to see it wasn't a "feature" of the newer Indy heads. Seems like only some heads hit water (machined too deep maybe?).
