Water Pump Problems! 1971 302 Mustang
Well I put it all together, and ran it around a 1 mile block, and it started leaking again.
I have come to the conclusion that the timing cover is cracked or warped and needs to be replaced.

The most common problem with timing covers is warpage. Not much you can do but replace it. Now, don't have a mouth full of coca cola when the Ford place tells you the price, or you will spew it all over the clerk.
Look for vendors such as this who also carry repops.

You might aswell change the timing chain while you are in there.

If only our wallets could keep up with our stangs!

Those things have been know to corrode from the inside out. I have fixed them with JB weld and it works great. If that is your problem and you need some advice let me know.
Ebay!!! You can find one at a very good price.... TIMING CHAIN COVER
