Hello everyone. I have installed my rebuilt engine and have put 3k miles on it. So in the last 500 miles my oil pan has started to leak in the rear next to the rear main seal in the corner of the oil pan. Ill put some pics on it up here for you guys to see. Anyways my question is, what oil pan gaskets have you used and had good luck with them. I dont understand what i could have done wrong. I used the Fel-pro PermaDry One-Piece molded rubber gasket with torque limiters. I cleaned all surfaces and set the gasket in place perfect. Torque it all down to what the book says and it has started to leak I didnt use any rtv because the gasket said not to.
So in 1-2 weeks ill be pulling my engine again. Along with fixing the oil pan gasket ill be installing some 1.6 roller rocker arms. Intake spacer. TM headers. Bigger valve cover etc.
