Where to start, after problem after problem after problem i have finally put engine back in and its now running,only to discover the fooking passenger side rocker cover leaking so rather than have anymore chew on i think ill just pay someone to do it. Any takers??

you need to use threebond when putting rockers back on it helps alot if youve done the head you need to use it on the out side cam caps aswel

I havnt noticed oil from the drivers side its only the passengar side and i thought id sealed it well using threebond but obviously not enough
