here is a photo illustrating leaks on Queenie's 2.0.
This leak eminates from around one of the head stud. Ideas from the almighty forum? Attached image(s) |

We put sealant on the thread of the heads studs... some of them go into blind holes and some of them are exposed on the crankcase oil. I *thought* that one was blind and didnt see any oil..
What sucks is: her heads dont have breather ports. B |

good point brad- could you rig up a breather and filter on the valve cover like on v-8's?

Yep.. we weld "bungs" to the valev covers and make them breath. The late cars didnt have breather ports in the heads (just a blank)

hmmm. Could account for the spittin' pushrod tube seals.
Any reason to expect this more on the right bank than left? |
