paper intake gaskets please.... Pix http://www.srtconnection.com/forums/showthread.php?p=320557#post320557
You may have a point........................................or would that be me. I was almost thinking attractive, but Ron already knows how I feel about that. :sick:
Head to manifold... Gonna try the paper gasket and see if that corrects the oil blow by from the PCV...
that's not the problem, Kyle. The add air charge, I believe, is lifting the OEM o-ring gasket and allowing the oil to enter #6 and #8 cylinders. Another cause could be a slight imperfections of the runners?... Before you scratch your head, lol, Techco moved the PCV to sit between 6 and 8 cylinders..
This works better...I sell it Ron, be happy to send you a tube if you want.... http://www.hylomar-usa.com/
What the hell are you doing selling this Hey Kyle, I wouldn't mind trying that out. Do me a favor and send me a sample tube please.
Well I was really trying to not use a sealant, but what the hell, if Cam and Kyle are ok with it, then it is worth a try. Kyle send me a PM with pricing. lmfao Larry, I spit Pepsi everywhere...
I'm scratching my head... I'm thinking you've got to be talking about liquid/pooled oil? going between the manifold and head and by the O ring into the intake port??? Did you forget to bolt down your intake? Imperfections sounds plausible. Is there such a thing as a leak down test for intake manifolds?
lol no, it's leaking directly into the cylinders. Fouling my damn plugs every 900 miles. haha I have looked at many possibilities once already with no luck. Waiting for the BT valve covers before I go any further as it is a PITA removing the runners. lol No forgetting to bolt down the intake. ALL bolts are torqued to spec. haha I think the sealants Cam and Kyle have offered up will do the trick? I will also inspect valves, valve guides, push rods, ect... once I remove the valve covers, but I do not have any cylinder pressure loss, so I don't think that is it...
I'm not getting it... You've got oil fouling your plugs (mainly #6 and #8?). PCV happens to be located into the intake manifold between #6 and #8. Cylinder compression test is fine. Only way in should be through the valves or past the rings (past the rings unlikely with the compression test?). So why are you thinking it's a gasket problem?
Hmmm, how about approaching the problem by thinking about eliminating the source of the oil? Seems like even if you gasket up it's still got to go somewhere... and that would probably be in through the intake valve? Still going to foul your plugs won't it?
The PCV has its own port in the head. The current issue that the oil is somehow going past the gaskets into the 6 and 8 cylinders. And yes, all the port jobs and gasket cut outs are a perfect fit. By sealing the gaskets at those points, with sealant, that "Should" resolve the oil into the cylinder problem. If it doesn't then I have more issues than I think. lol Now, I can not pull the head without pulling the entire motor (ARP Head studs lol), so I am going from easiest to hardest. If the heads need to come off, then Cam will be adding another car to his inventory. lol
