BB Chevy's had a similar problem with the front and rear rubber seals. All
we did was put a few dimples (with a punch and hammer) on the block and
manifold mating surfaces and installed the rubber seal with some Ultra
Copper. Never had a leak since.

Subject: DML: problems w/ M1
hey everyone, looking for some suggestions. when I put the m1 on my 360
this year, I ran if for awhile, and then it started pushing oil out the
front and the back of the intake, more in the front though.
I thought, o.k., easy, we will pull it and reseal it.
well, that worked for about a week, and then when I went racing, got back
from a run, and popped the hood, I had oil out the front and back of the
intake again.
soo, my ? is, what am I supposed to do? some say that I might have to much
crankcase pressure, which may be true, and if so, how can I lower it? The
valve covers have breathers, and the pcv valve is brand new and rattles, so
what gives?
any suggestions, greatly appreciated
thanks
Scott Miller
