Hi, I've got Tom Lowe's most excellent aluminum valve cover on my Chevy 250. I had the engine builder install it. Seems he was light on the torque and it looks to have leaked. I tightened it up but don't have ability to do proper torque at this time. Need a new tool since it's an allen wrench style. I suspect it's still leaking, I'll find out definitively tomorrow.
Napa's got a cork and a rubber gasket. What's your preference? I'd prefer not to goop it all up with silicon. It's got a cork gasket on it now. What torque do you use?
I also bought some dye and a UV flashlight from Napa. Will put that in to really check it out and ensure there's no other leaks. Experience with that?
Thanks!
