That might explain something. I will have to take a look intot he manifold of
my 96 and look for this sooty stuff. About 1500 miles ago, we had the
manifold off to do the cam and roller rockers. Last week it took almost 2
quarts of oil!!! I have heard of eliminating the gasket and just using
silicone sealer, or I believe Jules heliarc welds an aluminum plate to the
bottom of the manifold for his blower motors, after the manifold mods have
been performed. Any truth to this Jules?????
