    So i was disassembling my motor for inspection and when flipped it over water came out one of the bolt holes the header would mount to. Is this normal for a big block mopar?

    Yup. Another good reason to go aluminum. Aftermarket heads are not like that.

    Stud the holes at each end and that problem is solved. Be careful not to use to long of a stud or bolt for that matter. You could go in to far and break thru the ports.
