aerocorey Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Head gasket...it seals the head to the block. If that's where you're leaking, that's what's supposed to be sealing it. Make extra sure it isn't your valve cover. Yes, you replaced the gasket, but if the cover is warped or dinged it could still leak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
