    My guess is it's a head gasket match or sealing problem. What kind of heads and head gaskets are you using?
    Stage VI Mopar alum heads with a Fel-Pro 1009 gasket. Same gasket I have always used.

    If the fixed orfice (orifice) didn't change with the head install that is prolly not it.

    Naturally you will have more water pressure with the boat at speed. But should seal anyway.
    What Rex said. Also check the heads are flat. Check the deck is flat. Ultra Blue silicone water ports on block and heads.

    K, I think you may be building to much presure in the motor by having the Orfices on the outlet lines. It is like dead heading.
    All the Volume and presure need to be regulated before the water goes in the motor,,
    It's like puttin yo thumb on the end of a leaky hose, I just leaks worse.....
    This may not be the only problem. But it will increase any little leak.
    HE SAID ORFICE.......
