Hi, this is Marcus … I have the same oil leak issue same engine. Wondering which bolds did U retorque ? We’re there only the two bolds for the rocker housing that are under the gasket flaps you showed in the video? How much did you torque them and did it fix the issue ? Please let me know … Thank you.
The bolt on the left rear corner was some what loose compared to the others. I first tried to re torque. Worked for a month. Then I called S&S for gaskets still at the time covered by warranty. Then I replaced gaskets and it lasted 6 months. The torque specs are 18 lbs and the two small bolts are 100 inch lbs I think
@@taps_1021 so after you replaced the housing gasket and cover gasket it only lasted 6 month? Wow !!! I have this leak now for awhile and its to the point right now that something has to be done. What about possible clearance issues on the rear left rocker cover bolt 1/4 and frame? If u remember how many bolts did hold the rocker housing ? BTW, I am in Cali too … San Diego
The lower rocker box might be warped. Atlest I think mine is. There's ten total bolts holding the rocker box . 6 holding the top valve cover. I had to cut down an Allen to get the valve cover off. Tight Frame . Clearance but it can be done
Keep up the videos
Mine did the exact same thing exact area! Now I still have a leak and can't tell if it's the head gasket or coming from the throttle body
Metzler are sticky last a short time,
