    Default aluminum head leaks

    The Pinto aluminum head has the bottom exhaust manifold bolt holes go all the way to the head studs. So oil comes out through the threads.

    Ive used permatex anaerobic sealant with some success, just wondering if others have a method that works - teflon tape? Some other goo?

    I might give Quicksilver a call if nobody has an answer.
