Intake gaskets revisited. |

First I will tell you what it is doing. The 428CJ is very thirsty on oil. It pasted a leak down test with 10% leakage on each cylinder witch is good concidering that getting any street car under 15% is considered above average. The only explination that I can come up with that fits the criteria of this problem is that the bloody Felpro Printo seal gaskets on the intake are letting it drink right from the lifter valley. The car runs soooo good...I mean really stought but it smokes and uses oil.
Does this fit a scenerio that any of you have experienced with the Printo seal gaskets?
The hardware is a 428 with Edelbrock heads and a PI intake. Thank you gentlemen for all your help in the past. It is a priveledge just to interact with you on our favorite subject. |
