The more you change out these engines the faster and easier it gets.......
I had a leak on this rebuilt '83's engine. Right side, top of the jugs. It was time for a retorque anyway and I had initially torqued the main studs at 30 Ftlbs. Going through my notes I saw that stock torque was for 23 or 24...... Whatever it was that's what I retorqued to. Forty miles on so far and no leak. Of course it could have been that 12mm headed bolt to the left rear that somehow got missed the first time........lol
5twins was mentioning a spray on gasket sealer that he uses for the head gasket........copper something.
