Unfortunately its coming from the back side of the block by the transmission....I'm thinking the main back pipe...Originally Posted by sexyrob
that sucks chris, I'd check those pipes you had welded up, sometimes there is pinhole leaks (like I had in mine) I had to reweld it, smooth it down, reweld it, smooth it down... takes awhile to make sure they are all gone.

you put those gaskets back on where the rear pipe attaches to the heads correct?

well I have to remove the plenums to pull the wiring out of the way that is still back there to determine where its actually leaking at.....its fairly hard to take that pipe off the back..I had to use a prybar to get it to completely come off since the transmission dipstick is in the way...I removed the main bolt that holded that in place.
I will determine tonight.

make sure to bag it so it doesn't rust.
