Quote: Another block angle.... Could the intake be leaking and make it look like the head is leaking? I kind of doubt it....but....
after having to do my first barrel keg intake gaskets 3x in 1 day to get it to seal.
I wager big on it is the intake gaskets.
the intake only torques to 144 inch pounds in 2 steps 72/144 no more/no less.
it just runs along the head gasket edge and puddles up. if it leaks it has 4 corners to let it in the crank case. only flows thru the front end but has 4 ports on the heads.
IIRC, they bolts maybe a torque to yield bolts and not reused. i re-used mine all 4x
nothing like the old LA intake ham fisting it tight as you can with a 3/8 ratchet/boxedend wrench.
I am wondering how the hughes ramheads with LA bolt patter seal up compaired to a mag intake bolt pattern. i have seen way tony mag intakes leak water.
