Re: [AMC-list] Up to 60

I'm at work and and trying to remember how I plumbed the oil line to the 
head.  It's a 1963 engine block but I "think" it's a 1965 head if that makes a 
difference.   I may have too much oil getting to the head when I'm at cruise 
speeds.   But I will check the gasket fit tonight after work.

Joe. I always cleaned the valve cover groove with brake clean and once it dried 
I would put a thin line of rtv silicone in the groove and bed the seal/gasket in 
the rtv. 

  A very thin layer on the head side may or may not help. 

    That valve cover is two part were that groove is and I always thought that 
left just enough gaps for oil seepage. 


    The "right stuff" would do well too, not sure I'd buy a fresh can for that 
bit of seepage or not. 


  With other seepages likely to crop up on a fresh rebuilt car, I might just go 
for the new can of R.S.  


    I love that "stuff"...
