I have a '65 GTO clone with a Pontiac 400 engine and it had only water in it and the temp went below freezing a popped the front freeze plug on the drivers side....I can reach the area, how difficult is it to replace and any suggestions. Thanks

not difficult if old one is out. Get new one, green locktite, and evenly hammer it in place.

FYI: They arent freeze plugs they are core plugs. They are there to get the sand out of the block, heads, Etc. from the casting process. Dont depend on them to keep your block from cracking if it freezes.
