Curse you wisdom J. That is exactly the problem ! I had already found the problem but thought I would post this up to see how many V8 haters waved the slipped liner / head gasket sword that everyone seems to draw when a water problem is tendered.
Didnt allow for some of the more knowledgable members to post. :doh:

Yep my water loss was the pipe running from the reservoir to the throttle body heater.It had chaffed through to a small hole ,where the pipe ran behind the alternator area.Took me a while to find it though
