RE: IML: freeze plugs in head on '67 440cid?

["Dick Benjamin" <dickb@xxxxxxxxx>]

Well, you found one of them!  There are actually 4 of these in that location
(2 on each head), and they will be replaced anytime you have head work done.
It's pretty tough to see them and work on them with the heads on the engine
- my advice is to pull the heads and get them gone through; you'll have no
further problems, and 100K miles of trouble free driving on unleaded fuel!

Happy Holidays to all:

Could anyone tell me exactly where in the heads are the freeze plugs
located?  I have a '67 Imperial 440 that gushes water out of the head, under
the exhaust manifold, between the passenger side 2 rear exhaust ports.  With
the amount of water coming out, it would indicate a freeze plug, or a bullet
hole!

Thanks in advance for the help.
