Some of you may have heard that a certain exfriend didn't do me a favor and drain the radiator over the michigan winter.Picked the car up added some water and watched it pour out on the ground.First I want to replace the plugs and pressure test it all together.Second what can I use to help the plugs from blowing out down the track.This has happened twice but never in my own car for some reason.basically looking for some advice on how to handle this with out a teardown and inspect.I want to move along with other projects not rework finished projects.
 
You can either stake the core plugs or drill the block and pin them. And there's only one thing you ever want a woman to drain and it ain't a radiator.
 
I hope your heads aren't cracked. I put a dab of silicone around my freeze plugs and tap them in.I Wait overnite for them to fully dry.
 
I didn't even think about the heads.The heads are brand new with full cnc port with full roller setup.I only have about 24 passes on this setup and a few street miles maybe 50miles wtf.
