Throw away the RPM and but the M1 back on.
You need to use a valley pan with a gasket under the valley pan and one on top. Get some good gaskets from Hughes engines.
I think he already did, except he is using 4 paper and sealing now.
it is still leaking. its not nearly as bad. drove it last night for short time. go out and look this morning...... couple trickles of oil in the valley pan.
Called summit and they are taking it back.
Good to see that they are taking this junk back, wish labor could be also :glasses7:
Do use junk gaskets -try these-SCE AccuSeal Pro Intake Gaskets 264101
These work
I just used that same gasket and no leaks with my Holley street dominator...yet..., hopefully ittl seal up for you, I use high tac on both sides to, rtv in corners and rails
I run the 440 Source valley plate, Stealth heads and a Torker II on mine. The valley plate leaked badly when I first got it running. Turned out that the bottom of the intake was contacting the plate and breaking the seal where it seals to the heads. I'm pretty sure the intake would have cleared the factory style valley pan. It was an easy fix, the bottom of the intake right under the ports required some grinding to stop the interference.This
I just bought a RPM as well for my new build that will be ported, and milled for the new build (0 deck 383)
I should add I am not going to run the thin valley pan, I bought the 440 source valley pan for a RPM intake so I only need to run 2 intake gaskets
Since it's temporary I'd double stack and silicone gaskets and run it til the new motor is done
Looks great! How's it run with that victor? Also what carb are you running?
What happened to the Performer??
That look great youngun, whens it going back to the track?
I believe you said it was an 11.82 with the performer heads, should have picked up a few tenths
