496 Coolant Block Drain locations
 

Any pics available ? I've searched the site for the locations of the coolant block drains and their location is supposed to be just below the motor mount at just above the oil pan seal, is this correct ? Cause I sure as hell can't see them, what a jungle down there. Tips and tricks will be very welcome..................

Thanks

They're 18mm hex plugs that have an 8mm allen pattern also in the head. They're obviously black and hard to see.

The starboard one is almost but not quite behind the oil dipstick tube and blends in very well....

Don't pull the large allen plug on the port side of block. It is a casting plug.

Thank you very much. I got frustrated and quit looking for the day. I'll hit it again tomorrow. Based on your pic I now have a better idea of where to look for a needle in a hay stack............:p:D
