Need advise.

I'd yank those steel water plugs for brass ones.

Definitely!

Going boating???

I'm using a zinc anode plug in the block to counteract that problem.

I must counter.
While I realize what you are doing is well and good intentioned, it is always best to use brass freeze plugs wherever they are on a rebuild.
The only steel or zinc-coated plug that should be on the engine is the cam plug.

 

[73c20jim]

Why???

 

[Snoots]

No corrosion at all, ever.

Have you ever had to change a freeze plug without going through a lot of headache?

Actually no.
