Well i'm still not sure where my anti freeze leak is, but i'm pretty sure it's internal and i'm not losing another vehicle to some dam anti freeze. Is it common for the aluminum head's to crack, or is it possible a head gasket is blown. The only other way to find out if it's going into cylinder is by checking the plug's which i haven't done yet. when i go to replace all this beside's the head's, what all new gasket's should i get

or it could be your headbolts like i said. not necessarily a cracked head. Have you overheated? If not the chances of a warped head is a lot slimmer

badzee how exactly did you find out it was your bolt's, how did they leak. I just don't see it being the headbolt's cause the oil is fine my overflow tank was completly empty if that much antifreeze got into the motor it would be obvious
