Hi Rich,
The 948 engine has some head studs that are threaded all the way into the
water jacket in the block.
I think you're supposed to put some silicone sealant on the stud threads
before installing them into the block. I didn't learn this until after I
rebuilt my 948 but luckily it doesn't leak (at least yet) ;-)
Hope this helps!
Richard
