Re: Need a refresher on sealing intake manifold



Jim,

I am looking forward to the answers you get to your question.

It seems simple but I had an oil leak into the two rear left cylinders due to a valley pan leak that pulled oil from the lifter valley directly into the intake of the cylinders.  No leak on the outside I could find but I found oil on the plugs when I changed them.  When I pulled the intake I could see where it was leaking.

I'm sealed now but still not sure of the best way.

I am kind of surprised this is such a mystery.  Perhaps it is just that I know I can be rather annoying when it comes to details, but this week I talked to Edelbrock, Hughes Engines, and traded emails with a Technical Consultant at Permatex (after reading Ricky's Hylomar thoughts).  Well, I got three different and rather squishy answers.  Maybe I am making too big a deal of this?  I've sealed up Bowtie intakes in my sleep and never had an issue...
