Inliners International Forums General Discussion Engines I'm sick of leaking valve cover gaskets...

Well we'll see then...

I also use spreaders on the passenger's side. Figured I'd spread the load a bit. The driver's side has those divits and waves along it so it shouldn't be as tough to seal.

I used red RTV. Mainly because if it does squeeze out a bit the red is almost the same color as the paint on the engine. It's not a very hot area.


One other thing that I'm seeing: Oil seems to want to get into the side air cleaner and drip out. I have the PCV in place and it's hose is running to the bottom plate on the Holley. I have great vacuum. Still, though, it seems I'm getting some positive pressure under the valve cover. I wonder if one of my valve seals isn't leaking.
