coolant leak after cam/lifter/pushrod/springs chan
the leak is on the drivers side and looks to be coming from the back side of the motor. Do you guys have some ideas on what it could be? I am going to put it up on ramps and get a closer look sunday, I gotta go to work right now though. any help is appreciated!

LOL! I tore it down again and found it. I put the head gasket in with the side that was supposed to go to the heads to the block and the side to the heads that should have gone to the block. I just put it in upside down. Now I need a gasket and head bolts for the driver's side. Dang, I did a dummy!

Yes it does but it goes much faster the second time around. This was the first thing I had ever done to a motor besides change the oil so...... I now, needless to say, have scratches and bruises all over my hands.
