Valve cover leak question
I have a pretty good valve cover leak right at the back corner on the passenger side of my engine. 65 GTO with older 87 cc edelbrock heads, new enough to use the updated head bolts but old enough to have the old-style chamber.
Do Pontiacs generally or these Edelbrock heads specifically have a tendency to pool oil at the back of the passenger side valve cover? The weird thing is it doesn't seem to leak much when the car is running, but when I turn it off I come back the next day to a pretty good drip onto the passenger side header. Does enough oil stay up in the passenger side under the valve cover after shutoff to cause what I am seeing? Thanks! |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
