Good news your head studs are leaking as they should.
Way to listen to the internet.
LS1 != diesel.

Disregard. I was going off of AFR's recommendations but I guess that's not accurate for the LS1.

"feel free to lock this thread up. "
oh no, you spoke too soon.....
I once heard if you dump alot of black ground pepper into the coolant it also helps with leaks, altho I could have heard wrong

yes i spoke way too soon,
but i got better advice. if you remove all the coolant from the system you get no leaks. hmm decisions decisions.
tightened up the plugs on the back of the heads. still havent gained the courage to check it out.

Doesn't an LS1 have that stupid crossover thing under the intake with 4 bolts holding the fittings down? Check that maybe?
Temp sender in head tight?
Check for a leak down test or compression check to see if you blew the HG?
Drain coolant and run liquid molten sodium as a coolant?
Rip it all out and throw in a common rail?
Que?
