64 Savoy

[4eyedblonde]

checked out this 64 today. Needs a little tlc but other than that, a pro job at pro street set up. One concern was oil pooling on the intake manifold of the 440. It doen't appear to be from the breathers and it doesn't look like it would come from the rocker cover gaskets. Any ideas as to where this could be coming from? it's pooling around the rear runners on the intake.

Oil weeps up around the threads of the intake bolts. Remove and clean the bolts, apply teflon thread sealer to the threads. Don't use RTV as it will leak. Been doing this for years.
