SBC Single Plane
Mine keeps puddling up with water, assuming its just a 4th gen issue, but any ideas to prevent it?

Run a hose over the cowl and source the leak. I'm sure a well fitting hood would help as well.

liquid teflon on the bolts should help, unless you have a crack.

He is getting water in the valley under the runners, not in the engine. Better fitting hood and proper drainage would be the first things to do. A drain from the cowl with a hose would be easiest for now.

Oh, you mean like when it's raining. Yeah, not much you can do short of keeping the water out of the engine compartment.
