intake seal
ok guys
ive replaced my intake gaskets numerous times now
my problem is my block has been decked so much that its creating a gap where the heads meet the block at the intake
ive tried standard gaskets, ive tried the xtra thick ones, and they eventually blow out within days, its leaking again behind the destributor, and at the front left at the int. block head corner
what can i do to seal this up?
anyone else experience this prob, and permatex doesnt seem to help any..........or maybe i just aint put it thick enough
i do have real high oil pressure
at 1st start up, its around 60psi at idle, and 80psi at 2000rpm or more
warmup is around 40psi at idle, and 45-50psi at 2000rpm
how can i seal this up so i can keep it polished........

it was the valley gaskets, so i just used a thick bead of black rtv glue instead of the gasket and got her back together, and she is FIXED...........
no oil leaks now, but i have a trans fluid drip, think the rubber grommet is bad on the dip stick tube housing, or looks that way anyways, but the eng is leak free, and on to the next project now, so now its time for the pics, and a lil vid too
