Thanks for all the responses! So far, I've checked and rechecked the=20
pvc or closed crankcase system
and can find nothing wrong. There's a new big breather on the drivers=20
side and the pvc rattles and
is working, lines are clear and pulling good vacuum from the base of=20
the AFB carb. I've blown out the
fuel lines back to the tank and replaced all rubber fuel lines. I'm no=20
longer using vacuum advance.
and I've pulled the AFB carb off and cleaned and blew out all the=20
orifices best I can with out disassembling
it. and if my rings were bad, or worse, -o:} wouldn't there be smoke=20
coming out of the tail pipe? Which brings
me to another question- could my single anemic exhaust system be=20
causing this reversion in my hopped
up Poly? Also, when I got the new fuel pump I noticed it had more of a=20
straight arm as opposed to the
more wavy or bent one that my Poly normally has, could this make much=20
of a difference? I'm going to replace
it any way. Oh, And I'm still not getting a good pump shot from the=20
Carter AFB? and there's fuel in the
bowls as plenty of fuel poured out of the carb when I had it off!?
Thanks again for any of your thoughts on this,

On your
engine oil leaks, it sounds like you have a positive
pressure in the oil pan. I wonder if the fuel pump is
pumping into the pan area. I've heard of it before.

=A0 Hi, I read your post about your oil leak. I also took a look at your=

underhood pics. Very nice car. I didn't see anything about rebuilding=20
the new engine Rings, etc. I will trust that ring seal is good and not=20
your problem. I also was trying to see=A0how the pcv was=A0routed. I could=
=20
see what appears to be a pvc valve is routed to the base of the carb=20
(pull side). If it was connected directly to the int manifold before=20
try putting it back there again. It appears you have a blow by problem=20
(excessive crankcase pressure). I could not see the other side (push=20
side) to see where the line from the breather goes. It should be=20
connected to the air cleaner base. I am not sure if a 62 had a closed=20
system but you might want to check in a manual to see how it was=20
routed. Hope this helps. Again a very nice ride and good luck, Mike

Well it really does sound like the sump (Oil Pan ) is being=20
pressurised, most common cause of that is a cracked or holed piston,=20
but if the Vale covers can not breath that could also build up pressure=20
and the only place it can come out is the dip stick tube, regards=20

Hey Shuyler. I'd pull off the dipstick tube and inspect it. It seems
 to me that there is an o-ring on it, maybe not, I forget. Put some
 sealant around it and stick it back in- can't hurt! I'd then take
 her for a spin- see if that's the problem. If that ain't it, then it
 could be the fuel pump gasket. Again, if it leaks, seal it.
 =A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 With your carb, I have one idea from=
looking at your
 car. Is your vacuum advance getting full vacuum at an idle? If so,
 then it's wrong. It needs progressive vacuum. Find the hole that
 does not suck air at an idle, then rev her and it should suck more
 the more r's you give her. That's the hole to connect to. On a
 Holley, it's the top, passenger side hole.
 =A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 Also, did you time your motor with y=
our vacuum advance
 hooked up? If you did, then you are too far retarded and to get it
 to run right, adjustments(bad ones) have to be made.And to add to
 that, if you have your advance hooked up wrong, then you really have
 it retarded.
 =A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 I hope at least some of that helped.=
Later. Shaun
