[Fot] 1296 Spity leak

[marty sukey]

I have a tired 1296 Spitfire that I am going to try and nurse through a couple
of autox's. It has a pretty good oil seepage between the block and head on the
drivers side about mid-engine. The engine has quite a bit of blowby going on.
It also has a brand new head gasket. Do you think it could be the blowby
pressurizing things and pushing the oil out? I do have the block and valve
cover vented to bleed off some of the pressure.  I am pondering re-replacing
the head gasket but I'm not sure I'm motivated enough to do it for two
autox's:), especially if it's the blowby causing the seepage and a new head
gasket wouldn't fix it. Your thoughts? Oh, head is dead flat and block is
pretty flat.

Thanks,
Marty
