Hi Dave-

Don't mean to go off topic, as I have nothing intelligent to add about your problem...

I was wondering if you used any sealant on your head gaskets on the Pond block? Coolant leakage is a problem I'm becoming intimately familiar with...

BTW, we talked a while back about intake gaskets and sealing for the KCR stage 2 heads... KCR has some new custom Cometic intake gaskets for the stage 2 heads. Also, the builder at KCR I spoke with no longer recommends using 3M weatherstrip adhesive on the head side of the gasket. Silicone (or whatever) both sides. Just FYI.
