It started leaking about a week ago not to bad but leaking. Replaced it the other day with a felpro gasket what a pain in the a**! But still leaking in the back and maybe worse then before guess im gunna have to rip back apart again....

Anyone else ever have a similar issue? Any tips as to wat i could do to insure it wont leak again i dont have the time to keep doing it was thinking maybe cleaning it up and using some perma tex with the gasket this time?

Make absolutely sure the sealing surface is clean, dry and flat before you put the gasket on.

Be sure to use the new grommets that come with the replacement gasket. The old grommets get deformed and prevent the gasket from seating all the way down on the cylinder head. The new ones will keep the gap between the gasket and the head consistent.
