Cross country drive in a 122 120-130 1966

I'm not sure if this is a common problem, but it happened to me twice with a recently rebuilt engine. On two separate occasions, a frost plug under the exhaust manifold popped out. The first time it happened, I was close to home. When I ordered a new one, I also ordered a few extras. (Good thing!) The second time it happened was on I-80 in the middle of Nebraska on my way back to Iowa from Colorado. Fortunately, I still had a couple of spare plugs with me in the center console. I had to hitch a ride for some water and let the engine cool down. After installing the new plug and filling up the system, I had no problems.
Sounds like a fun trip you have planned! Have a good time!
