Just pure frustration at this point..

Ok guys..just looking for some advice or insight. Either one at this point can't hurt lol. 2 questions..first one is, I am finding condensation under the valve covers and on the rockers and stud girdles. I went and checked the head bolts and there were a few that had to be re-torqued. The oil still has normal coloration, except for a few spots around a head bolt or two, and around the valve cover. I have read on here and a few other forums that this is some-what "normal". I have never had this issue with any other motor I have had, so it is kind of freaking me out a bit. I have WAY too much invested in this thing to just say "eh it'll be ok. :nono:

Second question is about the cam/ or carb possibly. It just does not seem to pull hard enough/nor high enough RPM wise. Is it worth trying to advance the cam a few degree's or just go a different route cam wise. It was not my desire to run this cam originally, but long story short, in it went. We seem to be running lean on the top end right now. I bumped up the jets to 84's, after doing a "real" plug check and it still seems to be running lean on the top end. We currently have the power valve blocked off. Is it worth throwing a power valve in to try to cure this?

Here are the specs on the motor. Thanks guys
