any one else think that its wierd about my problem, it dumps like theres nothing even around where it leaks, for some odd reson could it be that my dumbass might have put the intake gasket on upside down or even backwords just a thought but im kicking myself hard about this... and just trying to get therois before i rip it all apart again...

yeah the only thing holding the water in the engine in those spots is the gasket so maybe it was installed incorrectly or something is warped. u sure you put all the bolts back in?? torque everything down correctly? nothing cracked hopefully. just start checking the simple things first
