Common leak all 100s will leak there at one time or another, right at the
engine ID tag.We install the DW headgasket and and hard head studs on every
engine we build and they do not have any water leaking problems.
We carry all of these in stock if you are in need. We will be closed this
week  but will be back on June 1

I rebuilt a guys 100-4 engine a few years ago, where we converted it to "M"
specs and .030 over. He over heated it at least once (I didn't do anything to
his rad.).  He now has a head gasket coolant leak (3,000 plus miles) on the
right side of the motor.  Is there any recommendations for a replacement head
gasket or head gasket sealant?  I have always been one to not use any sealant
on head gaskets.

Thanks, Shawn
