If it is leaking where the hose/reducer goes into the radiator there is a new design that eliminates the reducer and solves the problem. (or just tighten it for now) _________________ X-treme-toyz.net

Thanks guys. I seemed to have narrowed the leak to a hose right above where the headers turn into 1 pipe. Is this the reducer you guys are talking about? |

If you are talking about where it goes into the radiator than yes. _________________ X-treme-toyz.net
