That's what I figured. If it were me I'd pull the heads upgrade the bolts install new HG's retorque the hardware and change the oil. Regarding the leak..did you use RTV on the lower intake ends?

I think mike92gt might have a point. I only used oil on the bolts like the instructions said but that makes sense. If that were the case, what if any damage has it done? Will the coolant get into the cylinders?

Could I remove just the short ones and put sealer on them? Like one at a time and re-torque it before I take the next one out? I only ran the new combo for 5 min. I haven't even had a chance to break it in.

Thanks for the help everyone. I'm going to check all the other hoses and connections first then see what happens...

lxwants12s- I'll definitely go as long as this all gets worked out by then!

I only used oil like TFS said, i figured they knew more than me about it. I haven't had any problems with just using oil. Just go through and check all the little stuff and you will find the problem by process of elimination

WHEW!!! Thank God for the little things! Turns out it was just the coolant line in the back of the EGR. The coolant went down the side of the valve cover and to the front probably when I stopped. I used a funky clamp on it and wasn't doing it's job.

Thanks for everybodies help.

Now to tune it in...
